Tanzania Auto Club supports safer journeys to school with FIA Foundation

The FIA Foundation and Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) joined the Automobile Association Of Tanzania (AAT) to support the implementation of their existing road safety grant and learn about ongoing mobility and motorsport projects.

FIA Foundation Programmes Director Aggie Krasnolucka and Mobility Grants Coordinator Anaïs Aite visited AAT to discuss their current mobility activities and introduce the monitoring and evaluation (M&E) approaches to help track the impact of the club’s interventions. The M&E framework will be applied to the AAT current Road Safety grant that focuses on improving the safety of children's journeys to schools.
