Centre for Aviation Gender Equality & Justice

The Centre for Aviation Gender Equality & Justice is a pioneering hub for advancing structural gender equity across the global aviation ecosystem. Grounded in intersectional feminism and systems change, this Centre seeks to expose, challenge, and transform the entrenched inequalities that persist across aviation leadership, operations, policy, and infrastructure.

This Centre works at the confluence of gender justice, data science, and policy innovation, championing the development of metrics, indices, and evaluation frameworks that make visible the gender gaps in aviation employment, safety, decision-making, and access to resources. Through tools such as the Intersectionality Index and Diversity Metrics Dashboards, the Centre provides evidence-based insights for governments, companies, regulators, and academia to drive measurable progress.

With a focus on institutional accountability, the Centre supports the design of gender-responsive aviation policies that embed equity in hiring, procurement, procurement, training, AI algorithms, and public-private partnerships. It also foregrounds the lived experiences of women, LGBTQIA+ professionals, and gender-diverse persons in aviation, ensuring that their stories inform systemic reform and restorative justice practices.

Programs include leadership accelerators for women in aviation regulation, legal clinics addressing workplace discrimination, and research on gender bias in aviation technologies and governance structures. The Centre also collaborates with international organizations and human rights bodies to advocate for inclusive aviation norms at a global level.

By embedding justice as a strategic imperative, this Centre redefines gender equality not as an HR issue, but as a core driver of innovation, resilience, and ethical transformation in aviation.
