Day 1 - 15 March
Session:
Aviation & Border Security, Control & Facilitation


11:20 - 11:45 - Public-private partnership
Synopsis: Civil aviation transports more than three billion people a year. Bridging continents, countries and people is the core purpose of international civil aviation. It is the main pillar of the world's economy. However, it is also an interesting industry for criminals. The developments in aviation and aviation-related crime have many parallels. Any modernisation in sales or operational adjustment in our business leads to alternatives in the modus operandi for wrongdoers too. Airlines and law enforcement agencies can have the same objectives. In those cases, mutual empowerment can lead to fantastic results.
