Further to IAPH joining the IMO-Norway GreenVoyage2050 project, the new climate and energy committee focus will be to unite all energy-transition and environmental-related port initiatives under one umbrella, serving as conduit to global maritime policymaking at IMO level.<\/p>\n
Following the successful launch of a port survey on the status of electronic data exchange capabilities, the new data collaboration committee will focus on the action points of the cross-party industry joint call for action to accelerate the pace of digitalisation following the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak. It will also work closely on the IMO FAL convention, and provide further guidance on cybersecurity and automation as well as encouraging technological innovation through startups.<\/p>\n
The risk and resilience Committee will be the permanent successor to the WPSP-IAPH COVID19 Task Force with the same expert IAPH members who produced the COVID19 guidance document for ports as well as the COVID19 port economic impact barometer reports for industry-wide use. Its main focus will be to assist ports in long-term business continuity policymaking, as well as working on critical issues such as dangerous goods handling, climate change preparedness and anti-corruption.<\/p>\n
To enable this work, the IAPH Board has restructured the staff and resources in Japan and Europe into two complementary operational units, a finance and administration unit led by the secretary general Dr Masahiko Furuichi and a policy and strategy unit led by the managing director Dr Patrick Verhoeven.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
