Hello, I am Mr. Aristide de Souza. I hold a master's degree in mathematical sciences from the University of Grenoble, a civil aviation engineer's diploma from the Ãcole Nationale de l'Aviation Civile (ENAC) in Toulouse, and an advanced certificate in business management and administration from ISCAE in Casablanca. I entered the Benin Directorate of Civil Aviation in 1978, where I first served as Head of the Air Transport Service, and from 1982 to 1992, as Head of the Air Transport Division. I have represented my country in several negotiations of bilateral air agreements, and at assemblies and conferences of ICAO, the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) and the African Civil Aviation Commission (AFCAC). I have also represented Benin in aviation-related work of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) and the Group of Negotiations on Services (GNS).
