Pro Danube invites all port stakeholders to participate in the first survey launched in the frame of the Green Inland Ports Study.

This survey focuses on examining the environmental impact of inland ports, innovative urban and short-range inland waterway transport, and also digitalisation of inland ports.

The aim of the study is to identify the factors that impact the sustainable development of inland ports. Also, we aim to propose solutions for the implementation of green objectives paired with their economic development.

Participate                                

Initiated by DAPhNE and successfully continued on a yearly basis by DIONYSUS, the Danube Ports Days have become a must-attend event on the agenda of the IWT community in the Danube Region and well beyond, providing a transnational platform to discuss, by bringing together decision-makers, experts and the IWT sector, key aspects related to port development issues. This year's event is organised by Pro Danube in cooperation with the Green Inland Ports, MultiRELOAD, and Synergetics projects with the support of the Danube Ports Network.
