The CLARION Project addresses the resiliency and sustainability of port infrastructures and hinterland transport networks (both land and water connections) in the event of disruptions caused by climate change or other human-related incidents.
This holistic approach will help in
responding to crisis situations that may halt port operations, leading to business losses and service interruptions. By focusing on ensuring resiliency, CLARION will also promote the
safety and
security of port access and operations while
minimizing the environmental impact of construction, maintenance, operation, and decommissioning of port infrastructure.
Bringing together a multidisciplinary team of 20 partners from 11 European countries, CLARION will specifically develop and implement innovative solutions to mitigate the impacts of climate change on port infrastructure through 10 dedicated pilot demonstrations, which are expected to ensure the transferability of the results to other ports.
