The Port Reform Toolkit, from the World Bank Group, has been the maritime sector's reference point since 2001, helping governments, port authorities, and operators modernise and navigate change.

Now in its third edition, the Toolkit offers a structured approach to port reform, with practical guidance on governance, regulation, financing, and institutional design.

It gives decision-makers a clear road map for reform, ensuring ports remain resilient, competitive, and able to continue driving economic growth.

The current issue includes new material on digital transformation, cyber security, environmental & social governance, labour transitions, and the critical role of ports within their communities.
