BC Terminals: Increasing efficiencies a key focus

Common themes ran through discussion with terminal operators for this year’s update, none more so than efforts to increase capacities through modernization and operational efficiencies. Aside from the sensible business case made for increasing capacity, gains are also being seen in lowering carbon footprints. But challenges abound. Cumbersome, often “fractures” permitting processes that take years to complete was, by far, the biggest issue for all.

A Key Partnership to Empower Port Women

More women are joining the maritime ranks in a variety of professions within the industry. To encourage this trend, IMO supported a training course aimed at female officials from maritime and port authorities. The course covered lectures on port management, port security, marine environment, facilitation of maritime traffic, marketing, port logistics and other topics. The port management course was delivered through IMO’s Women in Maritime programme. It comes as part of the IMO’s ongoing and increasing efforts to support the UN Sustainable Development Goal: achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls. http://www.imo.org/en/MediaCentre/WhatsNew/Pages/default.aspx
