The 8th meeting of the Joint Prioritized Action Plan (JPAP) for SAATM Implementation was held at the African Civil Aviation Commission AFCAC Headquarters, in Dakar, Senegal from February 3–4, 2025. This pivotal gathering united key stakeholders to review progress on the Single African Air Transport Market (SAATM), evaluate activities undertaken in 2024, and set a clear roadmap for 2025.
Building on this momentum, on February 4, 2025, IFALPA and Kenya Airline Pilots Association (KALPA) co-hosted a forum in Nairobi, Kenya, focused on shaping the future of African aviation. Centered on sustainable growth, the forum fostered collaborative discussions that addressed both the opportunities and critical challenges facing the sector.
