A transparent way to bridge the gap between science, policy and industry
The seminar provides an introduction into the difficulty to bridge science with policy from the point of view of a maritime administrator. It is based on a selection of publications and real examples and tries to answer questions or provide inside into the following: 1) Can risk profiling of vessels be improved?, 2) How to improve asset allocations to mitigate risk exposure?, 3) How to detect potential dangerous situations?, 4) How effective is the legislative framework? and 5) Do changes in the economy increase risk exposure? Relevant background is provided to understand the research questions on hand, the methods and philosophy used to introduce change and practical application examples to demonstrate how research outcomes can be used in practice by regulators or industry.
The seminar will be held on November 8, at 13:30, at the University of Algarve, Gambelas Campus - Complexo Pedagógico, Anfiteatro D, and also online, via Zoom.
Participation is free but mandatory to register.
