ICAO to Develop Kazakhstan’s Civil Aviation Master Plan until 2050
The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has announced plans to develop a comprehensive master plan for the growth and modernization of Kazakhstan’s civil aviation sector by 2050. This strategic initiative aims to transform Kazakhstan into the largest regional aviation hub, focusing on sustainable growth and alignment with national goals.
The agreement to create this master plan was signed between the Kazakh Ministry of Transport and ICAO at the ICAO Global Implementation Support Symposium 2025 in Abu Dhabi. This plan will outline the future direction of Kazakhstan’s civil aviation industry, covering areas such as airport development, air navigation, airline expansion, flight safety, aviation security, and the liberalization of air transport.
By leveraging ICAO’s expertise and leadership in aviation development strategies, Kazakhstan is poised to enhance its transit and transport potential. This strategic partnership with ICAO marks a significant milestone for Kazakhstan as the first country in Central Asia and the CIS to establish such a collaboration.
With a focus on sustainable growth and modernization, the master plan developed by ICAO will play a crucial role in shaping the future of Kazakhstan’s civil aviation sector towards 2050. This initiative underscores Kazakhstan’s commitment to becoming a key player in the global aviation industry and reinforces its position as a strategic hub for air transport in the region.
