The International Air Cargo Association (TIACA), Air Cargo Belgium and Brussels Airport formally announced the first TIACA BlueSky community program. The TIACA BlueSky program, launched in 2022, is the air cargo and logistics industry’s only program designed to provide individual companies with a verified independent assessment of their sustainability credentials. Air Cargo Belgium and Brussels Airport Company have established a sponsorship fund which will support 15 members with their BlueSky assessment by co-sharing their fees into the globally first TIACA BlueSky community program. Not only will this deliver the individual assessment to the members, more importantly this initiative will also provide a community report outlining Air Cargo Belgium’s shared sustainability objectives.
The BlueSky assessment covers 8 crucial areas of a company’s sustainability activity;
Decarbonization
Elimination of waste
Protection of biodiversity
Support for local economies and communities
Improvement of lives and social well-being
Efficiencies and profitability
Attraction, retention, and development of employees
Building and nurturing of partnerships
The program which will run until Q2 2024 will provide additional support for participating organizations and the collective results will also provide Brussels airport and Air Cargo Belgium clear guidance as to where their community could benefit from additional sustainability project initiatives.
