PhD defence: Vasileios Kosmas
Thursday 16 January 2020, 13:00- 15:00, SPs05, Solbjerg Plads 3, 2000 Frederiksberg
Vasileios Kosmas’ thesis, Environmental and social issues in global supply chains targets two specific challenges emerging in global supply chains in which both the maritime sector and the international community can contribute within the context of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The first challenge focuses on the reduction of emissions in maritime transport through the enforcement of a bunker levy scheme, while the second challenge deals with the enhancement of the maritime search and rescue operational effectiveness in relation to migration by sea emergencies.
