Aviationizing is a comprehensive process of bringing about a holistic cultural change through Aviation Awareness, Education and HR Development to achieve socio-economic growth & prosperity for the nation.

Why Aviationize Pakistan?

Strategically located, Pakistan is witnessing a visibly evident robust growth in the regional aviation industry. Amidst South Asian and Middle Eastern countries, Pakistan is ideally placed to leverage its Human Resource in the burgeoning field of aviation. The question is: Are we ready? And the answer is a resounding ‘no’. Can we train, educate and get to the standards, level of professionalism and expertise demanded by the industry? The answer is a reluctant ‘yes’ and the caveat is: only and only if we are serious and the efforts are supported and endorsed by the top echelons in the aviation industry and leadership hierarchy of the country.

If Pakistan and its entire aviation domain was a dominating participant in the global aviation industry some decades ago why can’t Pakistan regain its status it was once proud of. It is a well-known fact that PIA and PAF trained and helped several countries in operationally establishing reckonable aviation entities.

Here is a synopsis of the Aviation Awareness Expo ... Aviationizing Pakistan.

It is conclusively established and universally accepted that the growth in aviation has an increasingly positive correlation with regional, national and global economies. If commercial aviation in a country is enhanced its GDP (Gross Domestic Product), an important indicator of a nation’s economy, also registers a positive increase. Interestingly, in a subtle but substantial manner, aviation also brings about socio-political integration between the networked city pairs.

Aviationizing is a term coined to express the following concept:

Aviation Awareness Expo

In an effort to Aviationize Pakistan, we need to ensure dissemination of relevant information regarding ‘Aviation & Aerospace’. Awareness and opportunities for employment in the aviation domain are important aspects for career seekers. Career tracks’ information must be made readily available at appropriate forums. Similarly, information regarding educational opportunities to acquire relevant knowledge and skill-sets is essential for prospective candidates.

If education is provided and awareness is lacking the real potential will not be realized, and if only awareness is provided and education institutions are not provided the awareness exercise may be an effort in futility.

While efforts are underway for establishing Aviation & Aerospace specific educational institutions, hopefully nationwide in due course of time, a series of awareness programs in the form of road-shows, seminars, symposiums, radio and TV shows, etc. shall be planned and executed in a well-coordinated fashion. Aviation Awareness Expo is the first of the aviation awareness program being planned and executed, Insha’Allah.
