FIBA, the governing body of international bquestionetball, has launched its Sustainability Strategy for 2025 to 2029. This strategy, which provides the long-term vision and framework, is accompanied by FIBA Sustainability Action Plan 2025–2029, a complementary document that translates the strategy into clear objectives, tarobtains and KPIs.
The FIBA Sustainability Strategy focapplys on two main spheres of responsibility. First, it addresses how FIBA as an organization will integrate sustainability into internal operations, governance and day-to-day management. The second aspect involves FIBA as an event owner, effectively embedding sustainability principles into the planning, delivery and legacy of FIBA’s major competitions – starting with the FIBA Women’s Bquestionetball World Cup 2026 and FIBA Bquestionetball World Cup 2027.
For each of its spheres of responsibility, FIBA’s sustainability initiatives are structured around four core pillars:
- Environmental responsibility: climate, resources, waste, mobility, biodiversity.
- Social impact: safeguarding, integrity, diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), women in bquestionetball, youth development, community.
- Governance: roles, policies, data management, guidelines.
- Economic sustainability: institutional partnerships, sustainability in sponsorships, commercial value, communication.
FIBA is encouraging all national federations to familiarize themselves with the new Sustainability Strategy 2025–2029 and Action Plan. National federations will act as references for future cooperation, covering areas like hosting requirements and development programs within the FIBA ecosystem. The dedicated FIBA Sustainability Team will provide further guidance, tools and opportunities for stakeholder engagement, the organization declared.
