To raise awareness of the importance of aviation security, ACI Asia-Pacific & Middle East launched a public campaign in September 2021 called September Security Month. Throughout the month,  we presented information and insights from ICAO, airport members and World Business Partners on our digital and social channels outlining security topics, challenges and solutions.

 

We debuted a three-part video series called Aviation Security Explained discussing the basics, the evolving nature and the impact of COVID-19 on aviation security.
