This report discusses: (1) challenges in improving aviation safety in Africa; (2) key U.S. efforts to improve aviation safety in Africa and the extent to which they address the identified challenges; and (3) international efforts to improve aviation safety in Africa. Includes recommendations. Charts and tables.
