To carry out this mission, it is to encourage and facilitate cooperation between the actors and policy-makers (international organizations, governments, industry, etc.) in the various sectors, such as airlines, airports, air navigation service providers, aerospace manufacturers, tourism, and commerce.
It is also to foster a constructive dialogue regarding aviation and development amongst members of academia, universities, professionals, students and interested individuals.
As a focal point, IFFAAD is called upon to play a complementary role in assisting organizations such as ICAO, IATA, ACI, CANSO as well as national regulators in relevant aviation issues.
