In just a few weeks, we are going to be bringing together aviation leaders, experts, and stakeholders from around the world to address the most pressing challenges and opportunities in the aviation sector. Hosted in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates by the UAE General Civil Aviation Authority, this year’s Global Implementation Support Symposium (GISS) will explore how cutting-edge technologies, sustainability efforts, and international collaboration can redefine the future of air transportation.
GISS is taking place from 10 to 12 February 2025. We are going to be focusing on collaboration and long-term goals. Continuing our tradition of high-level ministerial engagement, we will hold important discussions on resource mobilization and the global challenges impacting air transportation. Ministers and senior officials from various regions will join forces to address critical issues while advancing ICAO’s No Country Left Behind (NCLB) initiative. One of the key highlights of the event will be ICAO’s long-term Strategic Goals. We want to emphasize the importance of collaboration between stakeholders to ensure that aviation remains a safe, sustainable, and inclusive global industry.
