Cruise industry association MedCruise and global port network AIVP have launched a new joint Working Group focused on developing sustainable port-city relationships and cruises.
The Working Group will create a benchmark of current best practices developed around the world that can contribute towards improving the relationship between port cities, citizens and sustainable cruises. The group will also identify current challenges and risks that can slow down the implementation of good practices.
Other aims of the group will be to discuss sustainable approaches for tourism and cruise markets in port cities and to improve the dialogue with local governments, pressure groups, non-governmental organisations, national bodies, and other actors involved in the cruise-port city relationship.
