A regional workshop on Airport and Route Facility Management
was convened by ICAO at its Dakar regional office from 5
to 7 February 2003. The workshop was held for States in
Western and Central Africa. Also invited to the workshop
were some selected international organizations. The invitations
were open to national civil aviation administrations which
included representatives of autonomous entities (public
as well as private) for airports and air navigation services
in the States concerned.
These workshops are intended to be informal meetings providing
a forum for participants from States to receive advice on
ICAO's policy on cost recovery and freely exchange views
and information on economic aspects of the operation and
management of airports and route facilities (and air navigation
services in general). Those participating should come prepared
to discuss any problems relating to such aspects as well
as possible solutions.
The agenda for the workshop was as follows:
- ICAO policy on airport and air navigation services charges
- Organizational structures of airports, including comercialization
- Airport financial management and airport charges on
air traffic
- Development and management of non-aeronautical activities
- Infrastructure financing
- Organizational structures of air navigation services,
including international cooperation
- Financial management of air navigation services and
air navigation services charges
Special attention was given to the implementation of recommendations
of the Conference
on the Economics of Airports and Air Navigation Services
(ANSConf 2000), held in Montreal 19 to 28 June 2000, including
privatization and cooperative ventures as well as general
cost recovery issues. Details about the workshop may be
found in the Invitation Letter (English
and French)
to States and WARFM (Dakar) - WP/1 in English and French.
