About the GNLU Air and Space Law Conference
Aviation continues to play an instrumental role in connecting people internationally as well as domestically. From a commercial viewpoint, post-pandemic recovery has been impressive indicating enhanced confidence of the consumer in the industry. At the same time, recent mid-air incidents have seriously threatened the safety in the aviation sector necessitating prompt regulatory intervention. This is coupled by the challenges posed by increasing incidences of unruly passengers threatening the safety and security of aviation.
Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) are increasingly being deployed strategically as well as commercially. Efforts are also underway on the part of the stakeholders to ensure that environmental footprints of aviation are brought within the stipulated limits in a time-bound manner as per agreements reached at the international fora. On the domestic front, the government continues to be committed to developing India as a leading aviation hub.
Encouraged by the overwhelming success of the previous two Conferences, VSMCASL is pleased to present the 3rd Edition of GNLU Air and Space Law Conference to be organised on 14 - 15 September 2024. The international conference aims to provide a platform for deliberations amongst the Air and Space Law enthusiasts and thereby contribute to the emerging discourse on the challenges posed to Air and Space Law in future.
