The EUROCONTROL socio-economic research initially followed an exploratory process, looking at air transport from the perspective of different categories of actors in society (customers, politicians, press, neighbours, even air traffic controllers and pilots). It has also explored the economic aspects from regulatory and business perspectives, looking at the economic impact of air transport, and at the integration of sustainability and governance issues in air transport.
In addition, two events have been organised to raise awareness about the societal challenges in air transport:
|
| |
 |
A workshop on sustainability of air transport in 2005 |
| |
|
A symposium organised with Sciences-Po Paris on sustainability of air transport in 2006. |
|
|
|
This research contributed to the SESAR Definition Phase and to strategic orientation of research in air transport in support of ACARE through continuous contribution to monitoring research achievements against the ACARE Vision 2020 goals and to future orientation of research in Aeronautics and Air Transport:

In a time of profound changes in ATM both technical, operational and institutional, which will make it more visible on the political arena, technical competency is no longer sufficient but needs to be recognised by our stakeholders – and society is one of our stakeholders.
It is, therefore, essential to understand what is covered by the term "society".
- What are the public expectations on air transport and ATM : professionalism, safety, accessibility, security, quality of service, cost efficiency, transparency, environment improvements ....?
- How is ATM perceived in air transport and in the general public?
- Why should ATM challenges, decisions and changes be understood by society?
|
|
|
This society research aimed at understanding the different aspects of the relationship between air transport, ATM and society : public perception, image, politicians views, legal aspects, and also how the ATM world is reacting to changes
