ABU DHABI, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News / WAM - 07th Oct, 2025) Following its approval by
the UAE Cabinet, the General Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) has submitted the third edition of
the UAE State Action Plan to Reduce Aviation Emissions to the International Civil Aviation Organisation

(ICAO) during the 42nd ICAO Assembly, in Montreal, Canada.

The plan was developed in collaboration with all key stakeholders across the aviation sector in the

country, with the aim of supporting the UAE’s global commitments to climate action while ensuring
sustainable economic growth in the aviation industry.

This third edition further reinforces the UAE’s leadership in this vital area. The first edition of the plan
was submitted to the ICAO in 2012, making the UAE the first country in the region to do so, followed
by a more detailed version in 2018.

The latest update reflects the UAE’s proactive stance on global climate action and forms part of the
country’s commitment to submitting national plans to reduce aviation emissions, in line with
ICAO Assembly Resolution A37-19 (2010) and subsequent Assembly resolutions.
