Two years ago, PIARC established gender inclusion and diversity as a core value, forming the Promotion of Gender Inclusion and Diversity Team (PGIDT). This team is delivering three main priorities:

• Raising awareness: educating PIARC members and the road transport community.
• Creating an inclusive culture: fostering an inclusive environment within PIARC.
• Reflecting diversity: ensuring PIARC's reports and products represent diverse road transport users.

PIARC highlights key initiatives such as gender inclusion training, webinars, technical reports, and articles in our Routes/Roads magazine. Addressing the differing needs and travel patterns of women and men, PIARC aims to integrate these insights into road policy and strategy.

Despite women comprising less than 20% of the global transport workforce, PIARC strives to balance gender representation across all levels of its organization.
