This report from the World Bank’s Sustainable Urban Mobility for All (SUM4All) gender working group was the results of pioneering research undertaken by POLIS & Heather Allen and funded by FIA Foundation, which examined existing data and conducted in-depth interviews and polling to build a comprehensive global snapshot of lived experiences of women working in the transport sector.

The FIA Foundation is an international charity, working closely with grant partners to shape projects and advocate to secure change in policy and practice. Our Strategy 2030 firmly establishes our focus on contributing to achieve the ambitious targets of the United Nations’ Global Goals, in the areas of road traffic injury, air quality, climate action and youth empowerment. Our mission: Design for Life, For People & Planet.

Adolescent girls’ journeys to access sexual health services in four countries across Africa are often expensive, dangerous, and inaccessible. This report from Girl Effect identifies the key changes needed to improve equitable access.

At a time when an increased uptake of sustainable mobility is vital for climate, health and air quality reasons, this report examines why women in Nairobi, Kenya are less keen than men to cycle. Based on a study by the NGO Flone Initiative, and drawing on front-line evidence from women in the city, it also outlines key measures to reverse this trend.

The FIA Foundation reports on its charitable activities in 2022, including participating in the first UN High Level Meeting on Road Safety; expanding its TRUE emissions campaign to new cities, including New York; supporting refugees and emergency response to the war in Ukraine; advancing advocacy for the global youth agenda; and playing a key role in the safety of top level motor sport.

This report aims to provide an overview of the key issues surrounding motorcycles in Africa to give context and facts – and to provide recommendations – to help all involved to make informed decisions that will maximise the benefits that motorcycles offer and to reduce the risks.

Why is adopting a gender-based analysis necessary when considering decarbonising transport policies? How can we strengthen awareness of the gender, transport and climate change policy nexus? What role do governments play? This report examines the linkages between gender equality, transport and climate change to help develop policies that can achieve both gender equality and decarbonising transport goals by 2050. It provides guiding principles with specific actions to help countries and companies align their gender equality and decarbonising transport goals.
