The host port of the World Ports Conference, Port of Antwerp, is committed to the integration of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in its daily activities and supports every opportunity to exchange best practices in order to improve globally the sustainable development of port environments. That is why Port of Antwerp’s port training centre APEC has put together a one-day learning event on Monday 16 March to offer a hands-on and practical approach to integrate the UN SDGs in sustainable port development. The program is in line with the aim of the World Ports Sustainability Program to demonstrate global leadership of ports in contributing to the UN SDGs and is supported by IAPH. The executive course offers a practical approach on how to get started with the UN SDGs in a port environment, how to create focus in the different possibilities of the UN SDGs and how to integrate this in your port strategy in a hands-on way. You will get unique insights through the presentation of cases in ports in full development, as well as an onsite presentation of world leading cases in and around the port of Antwerp. The interactive exchange of knowledge on the development of a UN SDG roadmap in a port environment will give you the ideal introduction to the World Ports Conference. This course is designed for executives, leaders and decision makers in port environments and will offer an exclusive platform to discuss and share experiences around sustainable port development.
Full information on the course can be found on the APEC website where you can also register. Participation is not included in the World Ports Conference registration.
