The main objective of this Workshop was to provide an opportunity for information exchange on the linkages between trade, transport and the environment, with a particular focus on air emissions. The Workshop consisted of briefings by relevant international organizations on the work their organizations undertake on the environmental impact of international transportation.
The Workshop provided an overview, addressing the linkages between trade, transport and the environment, the relevance of different modes of transport in international trade, the environmental impact of specific modes of transport, projections of future environmental impact from international transport, policy instruments being used to limit negative environmental impacts, and the challenges and opportunities geographically distant, island, and landlocked countries are experiencing.
