On International Women's Day, the Global Air Traffic Controllers Alliance celebrates the remarkable contributions of women in air traffic control and aviation safety around the world.
Women have long played an essential role in the profession, and their presence, expertise, and leadership continue to strengthen our industry. We are proud to represent women controllers across all six of our member nations.
We reaffirm our commitment to diversity and inclusion in aviation. A workforce that reflects the diversity of the world it serves is a stronger, more resilient, and more innovative one.
To all the women working in air traffic control and aviation safety today — thank you. Your work keeps the skies safe, and today we honour your contributions.
