Workshop on AFI Regional Volcanic Ash Exercises

 

​Description

The ICAO ESAF and WACAF Regional Offices invite you to participate in the Africa Indian Ocean (AFI) Volcanic Ash Exercises Workshop.

The Workshop’s main aim is to provide information on the operational response procedures to volcanic activity in the event of a volcanic eruption in the AFI Region. It will demonstrate the provision and exchange of volcanic ash information- in support of coordination and communication between information providers, (including Volcano Observatories (VOs), VAACs and MWOs, and information users) for appropriate response to Volcanic disasters in order to minimize impacts on ATM from any volcanic activity. The Workshop will also provide information on the AFI Volcanic Ash Exercise that will be conducted later on this year.
