The Abu Dhabi Desert Challenge has become the first ever cross-country rally event to secure the prestigious 2-Star Environmental Accreditation from the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA).
The landmark achievement underscores the event’s dedication to safeguarding the spectacular desert environment in which the Challenge is held, while reaffirming a longstanding commitment to delivering a sustainable round of the FIA World Rally-Raid Championship (W2RC).
Achieving 2-Star accreditation signifies that the organization has implemented a structured environmental management system, measures its key impacts – energy, waste, water, and transport – and operates in line with recognized best practices.
