FIA Grant Programmes
Overview
FIA ROAD SAFETY GRANT PROGRAMME
Founded in 2012 with an endowment from the FIA Foundation, the Grant Programme funds FIA Club projects for promotion and progress in road safety around the world. It has awarded over 4 000 000 € to date. Over 220 innovative road safety initiatives have been started in over 70 countries: awareness campaigns, educational programmes and training, vulnerable road users' protection, conferences, events and workshops, road infrastructure safety information and vehicle inspection programmes.
The programme has been organised around four streams:
- Global Action – A yearly advocacy campaign;
- Transformation – Governing scalable road safety interventions;
- Capacity Building – Focused at targeted global projects;
- Collaboration – Aimed at facilitating projects at regional level.
The Sport Grant Programme section has not been updated since 2022.
Dedicated to motor sport development, the FIA Sport Grant Programme works with ASNs to strengthen motor sport activities. The programme is managed by the Funding Review Commission (FRC) who have ascribed a number of Key Performance Indicators to ensure funding delivers on its aim of growing motor sport. ASNs are legible to apply for funding provided that they comply with the set criteria and guidelines developed by the SFC.
