23 February 2025 (Geneva) – The International Air Transport Association (IATA) opened nominations for the sixth edition of the IATA Diversity and Inclusion Awards. Nominations are welcome from individuals and organizations advancing diversity and inclusion in the aviation sector.

The Awards categories include:

  • The Inspirational Role Model Award recognizes a woman holding a senior position within the air transport industry who has had substantial impact on diversity and inclusion in aviation through her significant influence at global level.
  • The High Flyer Award recognizes a female aviation professional under the age of 40 who has demonstrated leadership through concrete action in favor of diversity and inclusion, making a positive impact on the industry.
  • The Diversity & Inclusion Team Award recognizes an airline that has achieved measurable positive change in diversity and inclusion as a result of the work done in this area. Nominations in this category are open to all IATA member airlines.

'The aviation sector is growing, and attracting more talent to join the industry is critical. Leading initiatives to foster and engage a more gender balanced workforce will attract a broader set of candidates for the wide-ranging career opportunities that aviation offers. We are proud of the contributions of previous winners and look forward to receiving applications from an impressive set of applicants for this year's edition of the IATA Diversity and Inclusion Awards,' said Willie Walsh, IATA's Director General.
