The Directorate of Transport of the ECOWAS Commission will hold a coordination meeting with the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the Banjul Accord Group for Aviation Safety Oversight Organization (BAGASOO) on the implementation of the Support Program for Air Transport Development in West and Central Africa (PASTA-CO) Project in Lagos, Nigeria from May 7th to 9th, 2024.

"This Coordination Meeting is bringing together the beneficiaries of the African Development Fund (ADF) Grant, namely ECOWAS, ICAO, and BAGASOO, to examine ways and means of accelerating the implementation of the PASTA-CO Project by satisfying the conditions of the ADF Grant."

"The three-day meeting will also review the status of implementation of project activities and update the PASTA-CO Action Plan and technical agreements of 2019. It will identify constraints, difficulties encountered, and propose corrective measures to be taken by the stakeholders: ECOWAS Commission, BAGASOO, and ICAO, among others."

"There will also be discussions on outstanding 2019-2020-2021 audits and deliberations on the way forward to facilitate the next audit exercises."

"ECOWAS is committed to deepening regional economic integration by promoting intra-connectivity through air transport development in the Region."
