ISTAT DEI Award-OLD

The ISTAT DEI Award highlights and showcases ISTAT member companies, teams or individuals who are “DEI Champions”; those who are positive role models, advocates, and allies in supporting DEI within the aviation industry. Rather than awarding a company’s DEI maturity level, this recognition focuses on specific projects with tangible impact in advancing DEI in their sphere of influence. Projects fall under categories such as creating opportunities, best practices, collaboration or other areas.
