An ECAC survey on diversity, equity and inclusion was issued in June to the civil aviation administrations of the 44 ECAC Member States. The purpose of this survey is to collect information on the state of play in the civil aviation administrations, and to use the results to identify and share good practices among all Member States. Other diversity-related initiatives have also been launched by the ECAC Secretariat; these include an e-library available to Directors General comprising multiple resources on diversity topics, and reference documents – such as national strategies, European policies, studies and articles – on diversity, equity, inclusion, and mentoring programmes.
