FPWG MEETING PAGE 25
The Group was briefed on a new campaign from IATA designed to increase the number of women
in all positions in the global airline industry by the year 2025. The Group discussed ways in which
IFALPA could establish a similar campaign with the goal of increasing the number of women who
participate in their MAs at all levels.
The group determined that this initiative, by extension, would increase the number of women who
choose to pursue a career in commercial aviation. If IFALPA is able to encourage the Federation’s
female volunteers and delegates to take on active roles in their MAs, they can encourage and as-
sist them in establishing programs, strategies, and structures to make the profession appealing to
a more diverse group of people. This, in turn, will strengthen the profession into the future.
