The event with the theme: “Action for the Sustainable Development of Air Cargo in Africa”, will be held at the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA), Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

The forum is anticipated to allow policy-makers, air transport regulators, representatives from the aviation industry and other stakeholders, to review progress towards implementation of the Lomé Declaration, identify challenges and opportunities and building on the decisions of the 39th ICAO Assembly.

The forum is also expected to contribute to the cooperative activities between ICAO, the World Customs Organization (WCO) and The International Air Cargo Association (TIACA).​

Ethiopian Airlines has availed 15% discount on business class and 12% of discount on economy class fares to all participants departing from all Ethiopian on line cities to Addis Ababa to attend the event.
