Tasks and duties entrusted to the student:
The student would first have to define the concept of a sustainable seport. The next step is
to gather recent information about sustainable practices occurring in the maritime sector and,
in particular, in seaports. The point of view of port authorities and port terminal
representatives will also be also be gathered, which will require field work (or a remote
meeting), in order to explore specific measures to obtain data on both the ways in which
greening - perceptions of the phenomenon (scope, resulting issues, regulations...). The second
issue concerns the measurement of the sustainable seaport development in selected seaports,
which also requires data gathering. The expected deliverables would be a datasheet for each
studied seaport with all the above information, in order to give a clear overview of the local
situation concerning sustainable development of the seaport.
