Excellence Unleashed: Achieving GASeP Aspirational Goal Together

24 Sep 2024
International Security & Resilience Conference

In this speech, we will embark on a journey from the inception of the Global Aviation Security Plan (GASeP) to the realisation of its aspirational goal: achieving the highest possible standard of aviation security worldwide. We will explore the strategic vision behind GASeP, emphasising the importance of international collaboration, continuous improvement, and innovation in security measures, including:

- Strategic Framework: Understanding GASeP's pillars and how they provide a robust framework for enhancing aviation security.
- Human Factors and Security Culture: The critical role these elements play in creating resilient security systems and fostering an environment of continuous vigilance and improvement.
- Technological Innovations: How advancements in technology are being leveraged to meet GASeP's goals, from improved screening methods to integrated security systems.
- Collaborative Efforts: The importance of global cooperation among aviation stakeholders, including regulatory bodies, airlines, airports, and security agencies, to achieve unified security standards.
- Future Roadmap: Strategic steps and initiatives needed to maintain momentum and address emerging threats in the ever-evolving landscape of aviation security.

Additionally, we will present a compelling case study from CAA International (CAAi), illustrating our dedicated journey to support all GASeP priority areas. This case study will demonstrate CAAi's proactive role in providing technical assistance, training, and strategic guidance across various regions. Our initiatives include a comprehensive three-year research project for EASA “Impact of Security Measures on Safety”, active participation in promoting ICAO's Security Culture, and contributions to promoting Human Factors as essential element of aviation security. These efforts showcase our commitment to enhancing security standards and underscore our collaborative approach to achieving GASeP's aspirational goals. The speech will culminate in a call to action, urging all stakeholders to commit to the continuous pursuit of excellence in aviation security, turning the vision of GASeP into a victorious reality.
