EUROCONTROL’s European Safety Programme for Air Traffic Management (ATM) - ESP Photo Competition

Safety must always be foremost in our thinking and Air Traffic Management (ATM) is at the heart of aviation safety – in the air and on the ground. Within Europe, EUROCONTROL has launched a challenging programme of work – the European Safety Programme for ATM (ESP).  This programme brings together all related components of ATM safety, including human resources, training, equipment and procedures and looks systematically at safety regulation and safety management.  In short, the ESP aims to provide a common minimum level of Safety Regulation and Safety Management in the airspace of the 42 ECAC States. 

The application of a minimum level of maturity for safety regulation and management by States and their ATS Providers requires the completion of a wide ranging coordinated array of activities by EUROCONTROL and the different stakeholders in the ECAC States.  It’s a challenging programme because 42 States across Europe are committed to implementing these activities by the end of 2008.

In any programme of work communication is a key enabler, but this is especially so in one involving the many different stakeholders, countries and cultures. 

As part of the ESP’s communication activity we have launched a photo competition, the key aim being to raise awareness of the ESP programme as a whole.  It also provides an opportunity for us to reach out to aviation enthusiasts on a global basis.  The theme is Safety in our Skies and it is open to anyone over the age of 18.  Full details of how to enter can be found on our website www.eurocontrol.int/esp.
