National Action Plan Team
The project supported the establishment of National Action Plan Teams (NAPT) in the 14 selected States, which have become a key coordination mechanism and an inclusive process for the development of their State Action Plans. The National Action Plan Teams have changed the way the States work towards environment in aviation by triggering synergies amongst national stakeholders (i.e. civil aviation authorities, ministry of environment, ministry of transport, airports, airlines, air navigation services providers and fuel suppliers), facilitating the decision-making process and securing the financial and political support for the implementation of mitigation measures. The project’s capacity building strategy has therefore enabled a shift in institutional culture towards the environment in the selected States, which have taken ownership and gained greater awareness of environmental issues and are enthusiastic to undertake concrete action.
