APICE
Common Mediterranean strategy and local practical Actions for the mitigation of Port, Industries and Cities Emissions.
Harbours represent a significant potential for the economic development all over the Med basin, but they also have a potential negative environmental impact due to multiple emission sources. The presence of competing activities in coastal areas can lead to potential conflicts which need to be managed by the institutional actors.
APICE - a project financed by the European program for territorial Cooperation MED 2007/2013 - intends to develop a knowledge-based approach for air pollution mitigation and sustainable development of port activities, managed by spatial planning policies at local level, which includes the territory around the ports.
