Handbook for the Development of Air Transport : Appendix B

Overview & Synopsis

This appendix highlights the role of governments in shaping national aviation policies and emphasizes the importance of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) in aviation policymaking. KPIs provide measurable evidence to assess the effectiveness of aviation programs, support data-driven decision-making, and track progress across diverse stakeholders and initiatives. They enable impact assessments by facilitating comparisons before and after policy interventions and form the foundation for monitoring, reporting, and evaluating policy outcomes throughout the policy cycle. To support a comprehensive approach, the section presents a matrix of KPIs organized according to the principal pillars commonly found in national aviation policies worldwide.
