Principle of Collaboration

Brussels Airport Company wishes to enter into a constructive dialogue about its Strategic Vision 2040 with people living nearby, municipalities, companies and experts. To achieve this, we are setting up Forum 2040, in which everybody who may have an interest in the further sustainable development of the airport is represented. In Forum 2040, all interests and needs will meet. 

Participants in the Forum 2040 are requested to give advice, based on their own knowledge and insights and those of the other participants. That is why participating in Forum 2040 is not entirely non-committal. We are assuming that participants shall, throughout the whole process, attend all meetings and are prepared to cooperate in a constructive dialogue about the Strategic Vision 2040. 

For this, we count on all participants to respect the values of professional collaboration, namely respect for each other’s opinion, readiness to collaborate and recognition of independent experts. 

The recommendations and advice formulated in Forum 2040 arise from the constructive dialogue within that forum. The airport makes a commitment to take account of them when finetuning the plan for the future of Brussels Airport.
