Symposium Objectives
The ICAO Global Aviation Security Symposium 2020 (AVSEC2020) had a theme of “Improving Security Culture by Connecting the Dots”. This was timely given that 2021 is the ICAO Year of Security Culture. The Symposium highlighted the importance of raising security awareness in aviation, especially in the light of COVID-19, with experts sharing best practices and practical advice in developing a strong and effective security culture.
The Symposium revealed the benefits of effective security culture and provided tips on how to establish, change and maintain good security behaviours in the aviation community where security should be everyone’s responsibility. The Symposium also highlighted ICAO security culture tools and resources that are featured on the ICAO Security Culture website.
Security is Everyone’s Responsibility!
