Description
With rising geopolitical tensions, airlines are increasingly rerouting flights to avoid dangerous airspace, and in some cases, suspending routes altogether. This presentation will provide an overview of the history of how conflict between countries sets up challenges for sustaining safe and secure transportation. Innovative solutions for minimizing risks or avoiding hostile actions are paramount and depend on greater collaboration for safety.
Speaker: Lauren Victoria Bento, Geopolitics and Geography teacher, Colegio Dom – “Between Safety and National Sovereignty Zones”
