@FCCT Clubhouse and Facebook Live Streaming.Maritime transport in the current context: navigating stormy waters.
Maritime trade is going through a historic moment of crisis and disruption. How has trade recovery unfolded in the past year? What are the implications of supply chain disruption for shipping rates, port performance and maritime services supply? What scenarios and challenges could lie ahead? How could we prepare to brave the rough seas of crisis in future? What are the most relevant maritime trends/developments affecting the Asia-Pacific region in the past year?
Maritime transport is the backbone of international trade and the global economy. Over 80% of the volume of international trade in goods is carried by sea, and the percentage is even higher for most developing countries.
The Review of Maritime Transport is an UNCTAD flagship report, published annually since 1968. It provides an analysis of structural and cyclical changes affecting seaborne trade, ports and shipping, as well as an extensive collection of statistics from maritime trade and transport.
