Challenges and prospects for interport cooperation in the Mediterranean

This book proposes to study the contemporary mechanisms of interport cooperation through the prism of the recomposition of the globalized maritime economy, its repercussions on the plurality of transnational port governance phenomena, and their possible applications in the Euro-Mediterranean space. The challenge is to reflect on a model of sustainable cooperation between the various port authorities of the Mediterranean, in anticipation of the holding of the first conference "Medports Forum 2016" held in Marseille in November 2016. This characterized a "concert of Mediterranean port authorities" precursor. Its organization by the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM) and "Intermed gateways", the transnational interport partnership bringing together the port authorities of Barcelona, Marseille and Genoa, was the main thread of my internship at the Grand Port Maritime de Marseille (GPMM) between April and June 2016. This was carried out under the direction of Philippe Guillaumet, Project Manager in the Prospective and Evaluation Unit of the GPMM, and Secretary General of "Intermed Gateways".
