Sustainability Report
Genoa, Pra', Savona and Vado Ligure rank as Italy’s premier multi-commodity port cluster, and as leading port of call for the prosperous manufacturing and consumer heartland of Northern Italy and Central Europe. The ports are located alongside urban communities and in a coastal area where the tourist industry represents a major economic and social asset. Consequently the Western Ligurian Sea Port Authority is firmly committed to minimising the negative impact of port operations on the surrounding urban fabric and pledges to reconcile the competitiveness of the port with the requirements of local urban redevelopment, growth and the protection of the environment.
The strategic guidelines of the Western Ligurian Sea Port Authority point forcefully towards a Green future for the Ports of Genoa – a sustainable, resilient, low-emission port. This means promoting economic development, whilst simultaneously striking a balance with environmental protection and an improved quality of life for the local community, in the firm conviction that best environmental management practices also provide an added competitive edge to the status of the port in international trade.
Within this framework, the Port Authority published in 2022 the first edition of the Ports of Genoa Sustainability Report to outline the roadmap and highlight our firm commitment towards a detailed analysis and assessment of our overall performance in terms of sustainability and corporate social responsibility. We have decided to continue along this route, and we are pleased to announce that the updated second edition is now available online in this section of the website. In fact, the Ports of Genoa pledge their continuing support to the efficient management and deployment of natural and human resources, whilst simultaneously guaranteeing the provision of port operations in compliance with or exceeding environmental regulations and charting a green course for all port demands and requirements.
