Key Travel to Sponsor AIDF 2012

April 11, 2012 - PRLog -- 11 April, London -  The Aid and International Development Forum (AIDF) are pleased that third sector travel specialists, Key Travel, will once again be our dedicated Travel Partner.

Now in its 12th year, AIDF returns to Washington D.C on 6-7 June. The free to attend event looks to assist in effective coordinated international disaster response by providing a platform for NGOs, UN agencies, international aid agencies and governments to build relationships, address humanitarian aid delivery issues and discuss development challenges.

Key Travel will be exhibiting at AIDF and is also taking part in a session on ‘Safety of Personnel in the Field’, an area of increasing concern. Increased violence against those providing humanitarian relief is well-documented: according to Humanitarian Outcomes, 235 cases of violence against aid workers were reported in 2011, severely compromising the ability of humanitarian organisations to deliver assistance promptly and safely.

Sula Bruce, Project Director said “we are proud to announce Key Travel will be AIDF’s Travel Partner again in 2012. Key Travel has a fantastic track record of delivering expert tailored travel solutions for the third sector and will be able to assist AIDF visitors in making their travel arrangements.”
