The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) will be holding its inaugural Global Aviation Security Symposium (AVSEC2017) in collaboration with Airports Council International (ACI) from 12 – 14 September, 2017 at ICAO Headquarters in Montréal, Canada.
The three-day Symposium will serve as a platform to promote the work of ICAO, its Member States and stakeholders in the area of aviation security. AVSEC2017 will bring together AVSEC professionals from around the globe to advance the cultivation of a new mind-set towards aviation security, one that embraces AVSEC as a culture beyond a set of standards. It will also strategically enhance international cooperation and collaboration to address the threat posed by terrorists targeting civil aviation by reinforcing, strengthening and promoting the international framework of aviation security standards.
