  • Inland Shipping to Serve the Hinterland: the Challenge for Seaport Authorities
    sustainability Article Inland Shipping to Serve the Hinterland: The Challenge for Seaport Authorities Izabela Kotowska 1,*, Marta Ma ´nkowska 2 and Michał Pluci ´nski 2 1 Faculty of Engineering and Economic of Transport, Maritime University, H. Poboznego˙ 11, 70-507 Szczecin, Poland 2 Faculty of Management and Economics of Services, University of Szczecin, Cukrowa Street 8, 71-004 Szczecin, Poland; [email protected] (M.M.); [email protected] (M.P.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +48-91-48-09-632 Received: 16 August 2018; Accepted: 27 September 2018; Published: 28 September 2018 Abstract: The competitiveness of seaports is predominantly affected by factors external to the ports themselves, connected mainly with the quality of the hinterland and foreland infrastructure. Measures taken in these areas are reflected in the main objectives of the port strategies. Concurrently, the measures may have adverse environmental impacts (pollutant emissions, noise, land occupancy, etc.) and deteriorate the life quality of the port city’s communities. Therefore, measures taken by seaport authorities to improve their competitiveness must also heed the idea of sustainable development (sustainable port strategy). The answer to this challenge is the idea of green ports, being an element of the corporate social responsibility (CSR) strategies of seaports. One of the elements of this concept is promoting more environmentally friendly transport modes/transport chains in serving the hinterland as an alternative to road transport. Inland shipping is the most environmentally friendly and also cost-competitive mode of transport. Therefore, a modal shift from road to inland waterways is one of the elements of the European Union sustainable transport policy, as well as also gaining importance in the development policies of seaport authorities as an element of a green port strategy.

  • A 2.1 - IWT Bottlenecks and Potentials in the BSR Final Report
    A 2.1 - IWT Bottlenecks and Potentials in the BSR Final Report Activity: WP 2, Activity 1 Version: finalised Date: 22/02/2019 Marcus Engler ISL EMMA – Report This document represents the intermediate Report of the EMMA Activity 2.1. It describes a collection of bottlenecks, some ideas how to overcome and probable positive effects in the countries of participating organisations. A bottleneck is described as an existing permanent obstacle for inland navigation in the partner countries. Since the inputs towards this report are researched and elaborated by the EMMA partners, some readers might miss individual bottlenecks. However the project did not aim at covering the entirety of all possible bottlenecks, but at covering everything of relevance regarding projects requirements. The requirements for this activity are set to cover all parts of all countries except for Germany: Since a coverage of the project is the Baltic Sea Region (BSR), Germany is analysed by its north eastern part: From the River Weser via the river Elbe up to the river Oder at the German-Polish Border. The named rivers run more or less in a north/south direction, in order to cover the region, all waterways between the Weser and the Oder more or less connecting these fairways in an east/west direction, are part of the research. The research was done using a questionnaire in a table format was created, containing 28 data fields with open and multiple choice questions. This document covers the outcome of the questionnaire with accompanying information about the countries characteristics to set a context. Please find the complete questionnaire with hints but without answers in the annex of this document.

This document and any map included herein are without prejudice to the status of or sovereignty over any territory, to the delimitation of international frontiers and boundaries and to the name of any territory, city or area. UNIVERSITIES AS ENGINES OF INNOVATION-LED REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT The Lüneburg Innovation Incubator set out to trigger transformational economic change in its region by providing a platform to attract and develop innovative people, firms, research projects, social capital, and infrastructures. And this is what the Lüneburg Innovation Incubator – and all the different actors involved in it – have achieved. A substantial group of regionally-engaged scientists, start-up companies and research-intensive inward investors have been attracted and embedded into a globally- connected and open research and learning environment. Leuphana University, the Incubator's central player, is a mid-sized university. It has become known in Germany and beyond for its all-around innovative approach to higher education, which gives students and scientists a very high degree of autonomy and responsibility. In defining a strategic roadmap for the Incubator, Leuphana looked to its own strengths, notably in the area of sustainability studies, and responded to the region's aims to grow its digital and creative industries, to provide cleaner and more sustainable energy, and to meet the demands of an ageing population.
