The challenge of civil aviation safety and security has been the underpinning of the restructuring of the civil aviation sector. This restructuring reaffirmed the sovereign mission of control and supervision of civil aviation.

The ANAC-BF is at the heart of this new system which is built on a strategy and a philosophy that reflects its values and purpose.

The strategy is based on the development of three framework documents:

  • The National Civil Aviation Safety Program;
  • National Civil Aviation Security Program;
  • Program Budgets for the elimination of deficiencies.

Philosophy is built around three (03) postulates:

  • Recognition that there will always be threats to security;
  • The statement that security is everyone's business; The establishment of organizational standards.
  • establishing organizational standards

Thus, the ANAC-BF works to realize its vision of a safe, secure and sustainable development of civil aviation.

To achieve this vision, ANAC-BF has established the following strategic objectives for the 2012-2016 period.
