Implementing and delivering the Women in the Aviation Industry Initiative Strategic Action Plan in 2024-25 to 2025-26
The ATM seeks service providers with appropriate expertise to progress efforts of the Women in the Aviation Industry Initiative Strategic Action Plan. This phase of the Initiative will focus on three priorities, leadership and culture, visibility and awareness, and collaboration, and will target 6 key action areas:
· Priority 1 Leadership and culture: Tap into the power of leaders to drive change and to realise a culture of inclusion that promotes and supports diversity within the industry.
- Key action area 1.4: Develop and disseminate resource material and target opportunities across industry and within organisations to promote cultural change.
- Key action area 1.5: Design and execute an industry-wide culture survey to baseline the culture and monitor the change over time.
· Priority 2 Visibility and awareness: Increase visibility and awareness of the aviation industry and the unique and diverse career opportunities it offers women.
- Key action area 2.3: Engage partners to deliver grassroots programs that target girls and women across their education or career journey and are aligned with the communication strategy (when it is available).
- Key action area 2.7: Identify 2-3 critical roles within the aviation industry and target ways to improve the attraction and retention of women in these roles.
- Key action area 2.9: Monitor what drives the exit of women from aviation.
· Priority 3 Collaboration: Strengthen networks and collaboration across the aviation industry to drive innovation, share learning and optimise impact by aligning the industry’s efforts.
- Key action area 3.4: Optimise the focus on intersectionality through the identification of partners experienced in reaching and engaging broader underrepresented groups such as First Nations people, those living with disability and the LGBTQIA+ community.
