ICAO Next Generation of Aviation Professionals Global Summit
Understanding the Global Aviation Workforce Challenge
1h 8m
The aviation sector is facing a critical and complex workforce crisis, driven by labour and skills shortages,
demographic shifts, increasing competition from other industries, and a declining level of attractiveness among
younger generations. While current workforce forecasts point to significant shortages, they often lack the
granularity needed to support effective planning, particularly across regional contexts, roles, and competencies. As
the industry transforms, forecasts must shift from job-based models to skills-based projections, recognizing that
many traditional roles will evolve or disappear. This session will explore workforce pressures within both the
industry and civil aviation authorities, including capacity gaps and the need to improve workforce and skills
monitoring and forecasting. It will also outline the leadership and policy actions required to address these
challenges.
