The case studies are presented with the aim to relate the concepts to policies and industry practices. The case studies also add value by representing an international perspective from the major ports in the three key geographical regions.
Accordingly, an original framework in green and sustainable port strategy and propositions have been developed.
The framework is built on key constructs of stakeholder involvement, green market development, cost effective green policy as well as sustainable port operations and development.
Practical and research implications will be discussed.
