Safety Forum 2025 – registration now open
28 January 2025: Registration is now open for the 2025 Safety Forum, organised by the Flight Safety Foundation in collaboration with EUROCONTROL and ERA. The forum will be held in Brussels on 5–6 June. This year’s theme will be ‘People in the Centre of Aviation Safety’.
Humans are the cornerstone of resilience in aviation, consistently adapting to the intensifying pressures of an increasingly complex industry. As these pressures escalate, the aviation system must also enhance its resilience. The volume of civil aviation operations is projected to double within the next two decades, accompanied by technological advancements, innovative operations and new entrants, all contributing to an evolving and more intricate landscape.
Furthermore, aviation’s core objectives – safety, sustainability and economic viability – are becoming increasingly interconnected, intensifying the challenges the industry faces.
This growing complexity necessitates an exploration of how the aviation industry can continue to preserve and enhance the pivotal role of humans as the key to resilience.
The 12th Safety Forum, organised by the Flight Safety Foundation in collaboration with EUROCONTROL and the ERA, will be held on 5–6 June 2025 at EUROCONTROL headquarters in Brussels and will address this theme under the banner - 'People in the Centre of Aviation Safety'.
The Forum will adopt a holistic and proactive approach to examining mental health, wellbeing, fatigue and workload management as essential factors in maintaining resilience within aviation.
Resilience in the face of growing complexity and shifting demands heavily relies on preparedness and the ability to maintain adequate physical and mental resource margins.
Organisational philosophies, policies, procedures and practices significantly influence these resources, often in unforeseen ways.
These impacts may not be recognised until a tragedy or near-tragedy occurs. As the industry progresses, it is crucial to support and strengthen the human element that ensures safety and operational resilience.
Registrations for the event are now open.
Last year’s event was sold out well in advance of the forum, so early booking is highly recommended to avoid disappointment.
