30 November 2025 — The EU-funded and ECAC-implemented CASE II Project officially concluded on 30 November 2025, marking the end of six years of technical assistance and regional cooperation to enhance aviation security across Africa, the Middle East and Asia.
Since January 2020, the Project has delivered 264 activities in 89 Partner States, including tailored training for national auditors and capacity-building activities on a large range of security-related topics, and has supported regional cooperation initiatives. The final quarter saw 11 activities and the closing event on 13 November, which brought together over 30 participants from Member States, Partner States, and sister regional organisations in Paris and online.
The Project’s strength lay in its ability to adapt to national contexts, build trust, and mobilise diverse expertise. It fostered a culture of compliance and cooperation, with long-lasting institutional impact. Lessons learnt underscore the need for continuity, stronger anchoring, and long-term engagement.
ECAC warmly thanks all involved for their commitment. Together, strong foundations have been laid for future cooperation.
