Mission

With more than 20,000 members in 120 countries, Women in Aviation International is the largest nonprofit organization that envisions a world where the sky is open to all and where aviation and aerospace dreams are possible without barriers.

Our goals are to ... 

  • Invest in our current and future workforce
  • Build a strong, informed pipeline of talent for the aviation and aerospace industries around the world
  • Inspire women and girls to pursue careers in aviation and aerospace

The aviation industry needs more women to pursue aviation careers to access the breadth of talent needed to meet our current—and growing—workforce challenges. Attracting, retaining, and advancing women in aviation is critical to the aviation industry’s safety and ability to innovate.

Our strategic focus is to provide programs that support our members at every stage of their lives in aviation and aerospace.

We encourage, empower, and educate all those whose interests, lives and work involve aviation and aerospace regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity, age, sexual orientation, physical or mental abilities, or point of view. We know with certainty that our shared passion for aviation transcends any differences among us.
