International Civil Aviation Organisation

The International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) is a specialized agency of the United Nations that works to establish global standards and regulations for civil aviation. Founded in 1944, ICAO's primary mission is to ensure the safe and orderly development of international civil aviation through cooperation among member states. The agency plays a crucial role in accident investigations, providing guidelines and oversight to ensure compliance with international aviation safety standards. In the context of the recent Air India flight crash, ICAO's involvement highlights its commitment to improving aviation safety and its role in facilitating thorough investigations to prevent future incidents.
