AFRAA Secretary General to take part in Global Aviation Webinar

AFRAA Secretary General, Abdérahmane Berthé, will join aviation leaders in a panel session at the Global Aviation Webinar on February 17th 2022.

The Global Aviation Webinar will look at external shocks such as economic crises, geopolitical tensions, oil prices, militant terrorism, and public health outbreaks.

AFRAA said: “The COVID-19 pandemic has not only accelerated some of the social trends and technological developments observed in pre-pandemic years, but it has also reenergised the global aviation industry in unexpected ways, creating opportunities for collaboration, innovation and future visioning. This roundtable brings together influential regional voices from around the world to discuss the challenges ahead on how to advance a common path towards sustainability.”

In addition to regional updates from each of the speakers, some of the questions that will be discussed will include: how can regional experiences and current initiatives inform the way forward? How can we close the economic and infrastructure gaps that exist across regions? What are the obstacles to achieve the common path towards sustainability? How can we ensure that global aviation does not become a tool of coercive diplomacy in the coming years?
