Welcome to the NEW EPOC Project
NEW EPOC project summary
NEW EPOC has provided port cities and decision makers with information, expertise and a set of tools –
evolved from effective policies and strategies, good practices and
comparative analyses – opening up perspectives and ways for
successfully managing the process of economic diversification and
consolidation in maritime cities in a socially and ecologically
compatible manner. Different dimensions,
influencing prosperity of a port city, are taken into account in order
to cope with maintaining the economic vitality of port cities. The
co-operation is based on existing partnerships, already established
within the Maritime Cities Network (MCN) and will be extended and
intensified.
