World Conference Cities & Ports by AIVP - Lisbon 2024’s Post

[#AivpWorldConference] - 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐥 𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧: 𝐂𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐆𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 ▪ Bookda Gheisar, First Senior Director for Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion, Port of Seattle ▪ Christophe Husser, Directeur Général Adjoint - Département Espaces publics et Aménagement urbain, Ville du Havre ▪ Irina Gorbatikova, Director of Administrative Department, Freeport of Riga ▪ Florian Weyer, Directeur Général Délégué du Grand Port Fluvio-Maritime de l'Axe Seine, HAROPA PORT | Le Havre ▪ Ronnie Yambao, Senior Deputy Administrator, Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority Moderator: Hilda Ghiara, Tenured Researcher and Professor in Maritime Traffic, Ports and Regional Economies, Università degli Studi di Genova ℹ Port city stakeholders have shared values, a maritime identity that unites them, and a desire to develop the port together, as it is the driving force behind the local economy and at the heart of their territory’s history. For fifteen years now, the AIVP has been promoting the Port Center concept, with the aim of introducing citizens to the complexity of today’s port and enabling them to express their ideas on future projects. Port-city governance is essentially multi-stakeholder. It is based on arrangements that are always different from one territory to another. In this session we will learn about innovative governance in port cities. We will also discuss new ways to valorize and showcase the port city culture. From festive programs to exhibitions by local artists, from heritage preservation and reuse to original shared tourism policies, there is a multiplicity of initiatives that port authorities and local authorities can take together in the cultural field. With the rise of industrial tourism, the idea of “experiencing the port from the inside” has never been so popular. 🗓 27 november 2024 - 14:00-17h30 📍 Lisbon (Portugal) ✅ Registration: https://swll.to/jGwtzjh 👉 https://swll.to/0JNv6T

They are also the connection between port cities and the planet. Historically, their accessibility was a metaphor for the evolution of the port-city relationship. They changed from being accessible in the past, to gradually become off limits. Fortunately, there is a tendency to give back this access and reopen the piers for the people, inaugurating a new kind of port-city relationship. . But how permeable are these relationships today? What flows are shaping these interactions? How are port cities presenting local answers to global trends? What bridges? And how are ports reopening their piers? Porto de Lisboa

The UN Ocean Conference to take place in 2025 in Nice, or the yearly COPs from the UNFCCC are key moments to accelerate policies and foster cooperation. Port City actors are implementing new functions and expanding their roles to answer to these challenges. But how are they promoting innovative solutions in the port city territories? And what are their expectations for these global events led by the UN? What are the demands? During the AIVP World Conference of Lisbon 2024 we will issue a declaration gathering the expectations of port city actors on global issues. This webinar will explore innovative projects launched by the Port of Lisbon and other AIVP members and launch the first discussions, giving all interested actors time to reflect. In the webinar we will also review the program of the 19th World Conference on Cities and Ports, that will take place from 🔔 27th to the 29th of November 2024 in the 📍 Champalimaud Foundation, in Lisbon. This year's title, “Open Piers: Steering flows between people, planet, and port cities” will serve as a thread for our discussion ➕ 𝘓𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘯 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 #𝘈𝘐𝘝𝘗𝘞𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦: https://swll.to/ZNF7K3
