The evaluation panels were composed of international experts from Spain, Latin America and the Caribbean, UNCTAD and national experts trained and certified by UNCTAD.
The case studies were elaborated in the framework of the Modern Port Management course, in order to present concrete proposals to respond to identified problems – technical, organizational, security, management, etc. – in the respective areas of work of the group of participants.
The topics of the chosen case studies are recognized by the institutions of each participant as being of interest for possible implementation. In this way, the study has a real added value for the organizations.
