The primary goal of sustainable development in the port sector is to balance economic growth with environmental protection.

In 2018, none of the ports reported operational issues related to climate change.

Major international port organizations have included environmental protection in their work programs.

In 1992, the UNCTAD emphasized the importance of environmental protection in economic development. This marked a significant step towards integrating sustainability into port operations.

Strengthening existing port infrastructure resilience is crucial to adapt to the impacts of climate change, such as rising sea levels and extreme weather events.

When developing new infrastructure projects, ports must prioritize adaptation to climate change to ensure long-term sustainability and resilience.

The increasing frequency and intensity of storms pose the most significant challenge for ports in the context of climate change.

To address operational problems caused by climate change, ports need to enhance the resilience of their infrastructure and adapt to the changing environmental conditions.

The primary objective of environmental protection in the port sector is to ensure a balance between economic growth and the preservation of the natural environment.
