ICAO commences implementation of recovery roadmap and associated framework

ICAO commenced (27-Jul-2020) the global roll-out of a civil aviation recovery Global Implementation Roadmap (GIR). GIR provides a framework for countries as they begin to apply the COVID-19 pandemic restart and recovery measures in the ICAO Council's Aviation Recovery Task Force recommendations and 'Take-off'' guidance document. ICAO has started conducting a series of GIR preview webinars with directors general of civil aviation from all world regions, explaining its priorities and describing the important monitoring and reporting platform, and 'Implementation Packages' resources, which ICAO has established to support it. Global and regional GIR initiatives will be aligned, documented and updated, and these initiatives, along with the associated timelines, will be compiled in the GIR's Online Roadmap.
