Airports Council International (ACI) has announced a new ACI Fund scholarship for women in aviation. The scholarship, awarded by the organization as well as ACI training facilitator Dr. Luigi G. (Joe) Sulmona, will recognize five women in the aviation industry who have participated in ACI programming from countries designated by the United Nations as Least Developed Countries (LDC), Small Island Developing States (SIDS) and Landlocked Developing Countries (LLDC). Each scholarship recipient will be awarded a $10,000 grant to assist with their professional development in ACI training courses.
“This scholarship is a significant step forward in our commitment to supporting diversity and inclusion in aviation,” said Justin Erbacci, director general of ACI World. “We are proud to be part of this initiative that will help empower these talented women, providing them with the financial support they need to advance their careers and contribute to the growth of the aviation industry.
