SUMMARY:Group B Special Presentation - The Role of Ports in Humanitarian Logistics Management
DESCRIPTION:In 2017\, hurricane Irma and Maria devastated several countries in the Caribbean and exposed the structural deficiencies of the logistics architecture of the region. The economic impact was catastrophic with a total estimated cost of USD92 billion. Since 1970\, the Caribbean region has been exposed to over 475 storms. \nIn global transportation systems\, ports serve as integrated logistics centres but also as the main link between human relief organizations and affected people. Ports are also among the key national assets with the capability to deliver a strong response during the aftermath of natural disasters such as hurricanes\, earthquakes\, volcanic eruptions etc. \nThe intent of this presentation is to present an overview of the role of ports in humanitarian logistics when a disaster occurs. It will introduce participants to the concepts of disaster management and humanitarian logistics.
