ABOUT THE YOUNG AFRICAN AVIATION PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATION YAAPA The Young African Aviation Professional Association by its abbreviation YAAPA is a nonprofit association to promote, attract and retain through communication young Africans. The Association was founded in 2O14 by Ms. Fadimatou NOUTCHEMO SIMO from Cameroon motivated by the need to develop qualified manpower for a safe and secure African aviation industry and to create awareness on human resource development opportunities across the continent to youths, especially girls. YAAPA has been at the forefront of the creation of a network among African aviation professionals for the communication and exchange on best practices in both rural and urban areas across Africa. YAAPA's engagement is motivated by the need to address the shortage of skilled professionals in the aviation and aerospace industry in Africa as well as other Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) related industries, by motivating youths and encouraging them to pursue careers involving these subject areas. YAAPA is a member of the ICAO NGAP OUTREACH Group(Next generation of Aviation professionals).
