Setting the bar
At INCLAVI, we’re committed to establishing benchmark standards of excellence in accessible aviation. Our vision is to ensure that passengers with disabilities and reduced mobility experience seamless support throughout their entire journey—from booking to destination arrival.
This ambitious undertaking requires transforming complex aviation ecosystems. Creating truly accessible airports demands extensive research, innovative solutions, and unprecedented collaboration among global stakeholders including airlines, accessibility consultants, academic institutions, and most importantly, travelers with diverse mobility needs themselves.
By integrating universal design principles with cutting-edge technology, we aim to not only meet basic accessibility requirements but to fundamentally reimagine air travel as an inclusive experience where every passenger travels with dignity and independence.
Freedom of movement
The Inclusive Aviation project or INCLAVI began in September 2022 with the objective of addressing skill mismatches in the aviation sector related to the freedom of movement of persons with disabilities and accessibility requirements in line with the European Commission’s Strategy for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities 2021-2030. The project is co-funded by European Union Erasmus+ programme.
The project was born from need. INCLAVI was conceived to facilitate seamless journeys for all air travelers, regardless of their special conditions or disabilities. This goal was achieved through rigorous collaboration among key global industry and labor market actors, combined with a world-class consortium of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) and Vocational Education and Training (VET) providers.
INCLAVI has designed and co-created a new training curriculum utilising expertise from HEI, VET and Industry Actors to support the reskilling of aviation sector employees and key target groups who have a role in the passenger journey of PwDs from door to door. The training addresses students and professionals in areas related to travel agencies, airports, and airlines.
