CANSO Global Safety Achievement Award 2023 Launches

Air Traffic Management providers around the world are invited to submit their nominations for the CANSO (Civil Air Navigation Services Organisation) Global Safety Achievement Award 2023.

The safety of aviation continues to be the number one priority in the Air Traffic Management industry and, while 2023 has continued to see an improvement to air traffic numbers following the pandemic it still presents a number of challenges, not least through the rapid rebound in global air travel demand and the increasing use of digitalisation and artificial intelligence.

Each year CANSO recognises and acknowledges safety excellence with the CANSO Global Safety Achievement Award. The award is given to a company or team that has made a significant safety contribution which has reduced aviation risk in the previous 12 months. This can be a local, regional, or global contribution and may encompass a process, procedure, technology, or training improvement.

"Embracing excellence in aviation safety, we are thrilled to open the nominations for the CANSO Global Safety Achievement Award 2023. This prestigious honor celebrates the dedication and innovation that drive our industry forward.  Through the awards we aim to recognise those who prioritise safety and elevate the standards of aviation," said Osman Saafan, Chair, CANSO Safety Standing Committee.

The deadline for nominations is 6 October.  The winner will be announced at the CANSO Global Safety Conference 2023, in Dublin, Ireland, in November, and showcased across CANSO’s global platforms.
