Tunisia: TUNISAIR co-hosts AFRAA’s 6th Aviation Stakeholders Convention

The 6th Aviation Stakeholders Convention opened this Monday, 7 at Médina Méditerranea Complex in Yasmine Hammamet, North Tunisia. The convention is being convened by African Airlines Association (AFRAA) in partnership with Tunisair.

Over 300 delegates have started a two-day peer review on how to foster dialogue, build sustainable networks in supply chain management and create a competitive environment for aviation business in the continent.

Entitled “Collaboration for sustainable aviation growth in Africa”, the conference attracts airlines, Civil Aviation Authorities, airports, Air Navigation Service Providers and other aviation stakeholders.

The conference also features many exhibitors from various sectors, including aircraft manufacturers, commercial aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul (MROs), Ground Handling, Training Centres, Consultants and Flight Support.

It’s the first time that  Tunisia has hosted such event. The request was made by TUNISAIR in April 2016 during the 169th Executive Committee Meeting in Addis Ababa , Ethiopia.

African Airlines Association (AFRAA) was established in April, 1968 in Accra, Ghana. It represents some 39 African Airlines carrying 85% of the Africa’s air traffic.
