Qatar Airways has joined the Global Coalition for Sustainable Aviation of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).

It is the first airline in the Middle East to join the global coalition.

The ICAO Global Coalition promotes sustainable international aviation, acting as a forum to explore new ideas and speed up innovation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive, Akbar Al Baker, said: "It is innovation that will drive the industry forward for a sustainable future. I strongly believe that the ICAO Global Coalition for Sustainable Aviation will allow industry-leading partners to pursue collaborative creation and drive innovation together."

"Qatar Airways is looking forward to being a strategic collaborator in the coalition."

The coalition includes stakeholders working on sustainable aviation fuels, infrastructure, operations, and technology.

Qatar Airways hopes to ‘inspire other industry partners to take a participative role towards shared climate change goals’ the airline group said.
