8th EASA International Cooperation Forum (ICF/8)

International Cooperation today: Joining forces for safer and greener aviation worldwide

To join forces for a safer and greener aviation worldwide, the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) is organising the 8th International Cooperation Forum from 19/03/2024 to 21/03/2024 in Colombo, Sri Lanka.

The International Cooperation Forum (ICF), first held in 2008, is an international platform for aviation authorities and regional organisations interested in regional cooperation and the EASA system. It provides an opportunity to share experience and best practice, discuss the latest developments in safety and environmental standards, and promote safe and sustainable aviation worldwide.

This year, the ICF/8 will cover a broad portfolio of topics such as regulating technological innovation and emerging risks, meeting environmental requirements, upholding public trust in aviation safety and furthering regional and technical cooperation. It will build upon the experience gained since the last ICF back in 2019 and the close cooperation developed between EASA and its partners worldwide.

The European Union plays a crucial role as a development and technical cooperation partner for third countries, particularly in the field of aviation. EASA works with third-country aviation authorities and other international partners worldwide to promote European aviation safety, security and environmental standards, policies, and technology.
