ICAO Air Navigation World 2023 will take place from 28 to 31 August 2023 at ICAO Headquarters in Montréal under the theme “Shaping the Skies of Tomorrow: Addressing Key Issues and Technologies in Air Navigation and Safety.”

Discussions will focus on the future technologies and procedures to support the evolution of the aviation system to meet the expectations of the aviation community, including the Long-Term Global Aspirational Goal for international aviation of net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. This event will also be the opportunity to have an open dialogue on operational and implementation challenges of air navigation and safety solutions by all stakeholders.

ICCAIA members interested in participating should contact nbrooks@iccaia.org for further information.

ICAO’s Second Global Aviation Gender Summit 2023 will take place from 5 to 7 July 2023 in Madrid, Spain.

Hosted by the Dirección General de Aviación Civil (DGAC) of Spain and co-organized by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the event will gather Directors General of Civil Aviation, senior officials and policymakers in civil aviation authorities, academia and industry stakeholders to reflect on ways to improve gender equality and women empowerment in global aviation. ICCAIA is looking forward to speaking at the event alongside industry experts and senior government repesentatives.

ICAO Innovation Fair will take place from 24 to 26 September 2022 at ICAO Headquarters in Montréal under the theme “Innovation for Enhanced Resilience in International Civil Aviation.”

States and industry representatives will be invited to exchange on the challenges, benefits and opportunities presented by innovations as well as on the experiences with their uptake and implementation. The panels will focus on the role of innovation in supporting ICAO’s Strategic Objectives and addressing innovation from an Aviation Security and Facilitation perspective. An in-person exhibition at ICAO headquarters will also showcase a range of new technologies and ideas that are being applied.

Announcing the summer 2022 edition of the ICCAIA/AAIS Asia Briefing, focusing on environment and sustainability with experts from across the aviation sector giving their views on the regulatory landscape and technical solutions.

The need for the HLM-LTAG stems from the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Assembly Resolution A40-18, paragraph 9, which requested the Council to explore the feasibility of LTAG, and for the progress of the work to be presented to the 41st Session of the ICAO Assembly.

The HLM-LTAG will be invited to discuss the CO2 emissions reduction scenarios and options for a goal, along with the means of implementation and the monitoring of progress, before concluding with recommendations.

ICCAIA will participate alongside industry partners, in close coordination through the Air Transport Action Group (ATAG).

This event will build upon the success of the 2021 ICAO Stocktaking, which provided a forum for stakeholders to exchange ambitious plans for decarbonizing international aviation, including discussions on policies and concrete roadmaps to zero emissions. The 2021 event was inspired by green innovations brought forward through the ICAO Global Coalition for Sustainable Aviation, which serves as a forum of stakeholders within and beyond the aviation sector to facilitate the development of new ideas and accelerate the implementation of solutions that will further reduce aviation emissions at source, on the ground or in the sky

ICCAIA is participating in the 57th Conference of Directors General of Civil Aviation, Asia and Pacific Region, being held in Incheon, Republic of Korea. A paper will be presented that previews many of ICCAIA’s priorities in innovation and resilience for the 41st General Assembly.

ATAG – representing all sectors of commercial aviation – invites governments, ICAO representatives, the aviation industry, the energy sector and other stakeholders to attend the Aviation Net-Zero Dialogue on Thursday 26 May 2022 in Montreal.

In October 2021, the global air transport industry adopted a new long-term goal to address its climate change impact by committing to net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. The declaration was signed by the CEOs and leaders of the following: ACI, Airbus, ATR, Boeing, CFM, CANSO, Collins Aerospace, Embraer, GAMA, GE Aviation, IATA, IBAC, ICCAIA, Pratt & Whitney, Rolls-Royce and SAFRAN.

The purpose of the ATAG Aviation Net-Zero Dialogue is to explain and encourage discussion on the various pillars of action to achieve industry decarbonisation.  There will be a particular focus on accelerated energy efficiency measures, energy transition, innovation across the aviation sector and the importance of working in partnership with governments around the world.

Participation in the Dialogue is by invitation. The following are eligible to register: airlines, airports, ANSPs, manufacturers, fuel and energy sector companies, financial institutions, carbon offsetting and carbon removal companies, suppliers of products and services for aviation, start-ups, aviation associations, environmental groups, law firms, consultants, travel and tourism organisations, universities, civil aviation authorities, ministers, other government entities and ICAO representatives. Please contact ATAG for further information.
