A strategic overview of the ICAO Safety Framework, which includes an update to the Global Aviation Safety Plan (GASP) planned for completion later in 2011. The revision to the GASP will incorporate safety management principles, including a risk-based approach to the establishment and measurement of key safety objectives. Attainment of GASP objectives is made possible through the implementation of Global Safety Initiatives, which are achieved and measured through the continuous exchange of safety information. In this briefing, Ms. Graham will provide a summary of how ICAO is “walking the talk” of safety management, through the conduct of proactive risk analysis and participation in information sharing initiatives such as the Global Safety Information exchange.

1. ICAO’s Global Aviation Safety Plan –and Why the Protection of Safety Information is Vital to its Success Ms. Nancy GrahamDirector, Air Navigation Bureau 24 March 2011

3. Revision to the Global Aviation Safety Plan

6. Update scheduled for 2011 will introduce safety management principles to create a strategic approach to implementation of global safety initiatives

7. Accomplished in parallel and in harmony with the Global Aviation Safety Roadmap (GASR)4

9. Strategic coordination of global safety activities

10. Guide the prioritization and allocation of aviation safety resources

11. Measureable achievement of global safety goalsGASP 5

13. Reduce the risk to human life

14. Safety Targets

15. Safety targets will be defined according to risk criteria

16. Continually measured for significant change

17. Global Safety Initiatives

18. Linked to global safety targets

19. Specific metrics will monitor GSI effectiveness

20. Safety information sharing essential to ensure successful implementationGoal Safety Targets Global Safety Initiatives 6

22. Significantly reduce the global fatal accident rate

23. Supporting Safety Targets (risk-based)

24. Significantly reduce regional LEI disparity

25. Significantly reduce the rate of high-risk accidents and serious incidents including:

26. Runway related events

27. Loss of control in-flight

29. GSI focus will follow a progressive implementation model – building safety management practices on sound fundamental safety oversight systems

30. GSI metrics will monitor progress, providing timely information regarding the global state of safety

33. Integrated Safety Trend Analysis & Reporting System (iSTARS)

34. Analytical support for ICAO safety programmes and worldwide audits

37. Enhances data quality & increases sample sizes to identify safety issues

39. Provides comprehensive perspective to identify systemic hazards

43. Metrics & analytic methods must be harmonized

45. Participants will develop a mechanism for sharing such information in an efficient and timely manner

50. Thank you
