In the running up to the World Ports Conference eight regional online workshops were held to identify gaps in port competitiveness and ways to close them. The results of the Chatham House Rule workshops will be presented and discussed with the IAPH Vice-Presidents during the regional breakfast sessions at the Vancouver conference, on Monday 16 and Tuesday 17 May. We are delighted to provide you with downloadable, easy-to-read executive summaries of the workshops through the following links: North America, North Europe, Mediterranean, Iberia and Black Sea, South-East Asia and Oceania, Sub-Saharan Africa, Central and South America, Middle East, Central and South Asia, East Asia. These provide essential reading on your flight to Vancouver! At the regional breakfast sessions, you will also get an overview of IAPH’s Environmental Ship Index, the industry benchmark for 7,000 ships and 60 global ports and maritime organisations to incentivise ship owners, operators and managers to improve environmental performance of their vessels. Make sure to register your participation for the regional breakfast sessions here.
