• To foster, promote and engage in aviation education, particularly as it relates to women in aviation. This includes encouraging women to seek opportunities in aviation.
• To cultivate, foster, and promote interest and understanding among thepublic in the accomplishments and contributions of women to the aviation industry.
• To establish, acquire and maintain information and materials, acting as a depository for historical and scientific interest which pertain in any way to the science of aviation, especially as it relates to women in aviation.

AWE is promoted by Michelle Bassanesi (see Curriculum Vitae), an aviation enthusiast holding several flight licenses and endorsements both sides of the Ocean (JAA FI(A) and FAA CFI CFII ASEL). Michelle has experienced all the difficulties a woman, even in a modern and non-sexist society as that of western Europe, must face to find a proper location in aviation world regardless of skills and qualification: thus she decided to do something similar to what WAI does in the USA to lobby and promote women's talents.

AWE coordinates the promotion of women and their work in aviation.
AWE looks to spread aviation knowledge and culture amongst women.
AWE's long term goal is to create a source of information and professional opportunities for women in European aerospace and aviation.
AWE will rapidly become the main source for the aviation industry "made in Europe" as well as a powerful "food for thoughts" factory.
