Lehmann wants FIS to "take a clear position" on climate change and human rights Sunday, 16 May 2021 The International Ski Federation must "take a clear position" on issues including climate change and human rights, according to Presidential candidate Urs Lehmann. The Swiss-Ski leader is one of four candidates standing for FIS President, and Lehmann's manifesto includes a pledge to produce "a definitive and comprehensive corporate social responsibility policy that addresses climate change, environmental protection, gender disparity, human rights". Climate change is of particular importance to winter sports, which are reliant on snow or ice to remain viable, and Lehmann wishes to chart a new course where the FIS takes the lead on sustainability and being environmentally responsible.
