The fourth edition in the #IAPH2026 webinar series is open for registration. On Wednesday 24 June (10:00 CEST / 17:00 JST) join IAPH moderator Victor Shieh (director membership outreach & networks) and an expert panel to explore the topic of community building. Why is the topic still so high on the agendas of global ports, and what are port authorities and their communities focusing on to bring the port and the city closer together? In this one-hour webinar – titled ‘Ports and Cities: thriving connections in a fragmented world’ – you will hear examples of how ports and cities have joined forces in a pragmatic way to build a shared future. Panellists will explore the challenges they have encountered and debate the best way forward for developed and developing countries alike. Victor will be joined by a panel comprising Siân Foster, director of corporate affairs, Port of London Authority, Dr N Vinodkumar, chairperson, Mormugao Port Authority, Dr Kingsley Antwi-Boasiako, general manager for marketing and corporate affairs and Nana Esi Quansah-Söderberg, marketing and corporate affairs manager, both of Ghana Ports & Harbours Authority. You can register here.
