POWER4MED Final International Conference & Capacity Building Seminar

Jointly organised by LSIM (University of Oran), SDG4MED and the EU's WESTMED initiative the POWER4MED Final Conference is chaired by Prof. Boumediene Beladjine and brings together authorities and experts from all the Western Mediterranean basin to attend the inauguration of the POWER4MED supporting structure for the environmental sustainability of the maritime sector. 

The Mediterranean is facing a double challenge: restoring its health and ensure wealth to its increasing population. Both are at the heart of common Mediterranean policies such as the Mediterranean Action Plan (agreed by all the Mediterranean Countries within the Barcellona Convention framework) and the WESTMED Ministerial Declaration. 

Besides common policies, the transition to carbon neutrality requires short & medium-term solutions most of which are neither affordable nor fully available yet. Therefore, their adoption by operators shall be enabled by appropriate capacity and infrastructure. 

To this end, the project conceived the "POWER4MED Supporting Stucture", the Italian-Algerian-Egyptian virtual infrastructure that supports the deployment of good environmental practices and of commercial collaboration in the Mediterranean maritime and shipbuilding sectors. 

The outline programme is the following:

1/7 TECHNICAL VISIT
