AIVP, the Worldwide Network of Port Cities, and MedCruise, the Association of Mediterranean Cruise Ports, signed the MoU on 21 April to strengthen the corporation between both organisations.

“The new agreement will allow AIVP and Medcruise to work together to share knowledge and research solutions that protect the environment and valorise our culture and our society,” said AIVP. “Both international organizations have complementary capacities, that will facilitate a fruitful cooperation.”

In the future, AIVP and Medcruise will team up in events, projects and publications that will help their members in their quest for sustainable development. In the coming months we will see the first results of this MoU and improved collaboration.

Created in 1988 by port and city stakeholders looking to promote dialogue on the transformation of city-port interfaces, AIVP is now a global organisation supporting sustainable city-port development strategies. It has more than 180 members worldwide, in all continents, including port authorities, municipalities, regions, companies and research institutions.
