The International Fire Aviation Working Group (IFAWG) comprises people who lead and manage the use of aircraft for wildland fire management around the world. This small group is made up of representatives from countries and jurisdictions who regularly utilise aerial means in managing landscape fire, including for firefighting.
The IFAWG operates as an advisory group of the United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Reduction.
The group aims to improve the safety and effectiveness of aerial means by sharing information, experience and resources.
