Dear colleague, fellow & future aviator,

There are only 3 weeks left before the 7th edition of our Safety in African Aviation conference on the 14, 15, 21 & 22 October from 12:50 to 15:45 Central African Time.

The AviAssist Foundation is committed to your lifelong learning. We don’t just say that, we also give you the chance to practice it.

Because of Covid-19, this year’s edition of our annual conference will be entirely virtual and spread over 4 afternoons. Access will be FREE – the Foundation’s gift to the industry’s post-COVID-19 recovery. It will be broadcast via the event website www.siaa2020.com where you can also register. We will be broadcasting from a professional studio in The Netherlands, for online viewing worldwide.

Speakers from across the industry and the world will provide their insights into sustaining the safety leap that Africa has made in the past 5 years. Key speakers & table guests include:

• Yvonne Makolo, CEO, RwandAir – opening address (pictured above)
