Victor Shieh, director of communications for the IAPH, made his way to the IMO’s London offices as reported by IAPH.
Long-awaited meet
Due to the numerous joint initiatives and projects on energy transition, trade facilitation, and port call optimization that IAPH and IMO are planning and implementing, IAPH communications director Victor Shieh made his long-awaited trip to the IMO’s headquarters in London this week to finally meet with social media and communications officer Karine Langlois in person for the first time. Throughout the pandemic, the two have collaborated on a number of initiatives. Discussion topics included the Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC) of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and Facilitation (FAL), with a focus on the deployment of Maritime Single Window systems. Along with IAPH’s engagement as an official participant in the GreenVoyage2050 collaboration initiative between the Government of Norway and the IMO, Just in Time Arrivals and biofouling activities were also highlighted.
