Aim

<p>We will rely on the exchange of experiences that allow us to identify and transfer best practices to enable local public authorities create or develop their airport territories.</p>

Description

Based on the work already performed by the IAU and the Alliance Hubstart Paris Region®, we will create a common set of best practices for sustainable development and planning of airport sites for better consideration of these issues on the territories and facilitate the implementation of appropriate policies.
