The circular economy and port systems is the ‘field of activity’ within which this site operates. The complex and dynamic nature of the ‘field’, covering tough challenges, big issues and abstract goals can be paralyzing. This can make it difficult to get started. THEMES have been introduced as a series of niche topics that are considered relevant entry points. Each theme sets challenges and actionable insights as a conversation starter.
Port Performance
The quest for performance measurement has always been a key issue for ports. Port managers need to organise complex processes efficiently and effectively to find the best ways of delivering value to their customers and addressing stakeholder concerns.
Port Integration
Ports have great potential for circular management resources. Yet their capacity depends on infrastructure and networks. By looking at how ports are integrated into their context, it is possible to identify where ports can play a role in the larger circular economy.
