Currently, there are no international standards, or systematic methods of measuring integrity within and between ports. GPIP will allow charterers, cargo owners, and shipping companies to compare ports\u2019 integrity performance and identify risks when trading. For seafarers and shipping companies, GPIP will provide dynamic data that will help empower the industry to say no to corruption by making it easier to assess risk and prepare for calling ports in high-risk locations. GPIP will show very clearly what problems are most common and what challenges seafarers can expect to encounter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>GPIP is available for MACN members and will be made available to collective action partners and other collaborating stakeholders in MACN\u2019s network. The platform currently includes 106 ports from over 50 countries. MACN\u2019s ambition is to double the number of ports in the system by end of 2022.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mailmunch-forms-in-post-middle\" style=\"display: none !important;\"><\/div>\n<p>MACN CEO, Cecilia M\u00fcller Torbrand, said \u201cFor ports, GPIP will incentivise integrity by allowing for performance comparisons across ports regionally and globally. It will highlight ports that require investment and will also be a tool for international donors, private sector investors, and any stakeholder with an interest in port sector reform and trade facilitation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The platform is also an engagement tool that will facilitate constructive discussions between governments, the maritime industry, ports and terminals and other stakeholders. It will support MACN\u2019s agenda on collective action against corruption in the maritime sector and will help open evidence-based conversations with ports, authorities, and governments as well as other MACN stakeholders on reducing corruption risks and promoting integrity in ports.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mailmunch-forms-after-post\" style=\"display: none !important;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"stream-item stream-item-below-post-content\">\n\t    <!-- \/91333190\/SPLASH247_*_Splash247_Article_*_Strip_Slot_*_2 --><\/p>\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-1_95_0_1_2\">\n<script>\ngoogletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1_95_0_1_2'); });\n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>splash247<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Maritime Anti-Corruption Network (MACN) has launched the Global Port Integrity Platform (GPIP), using the network\u2019s current incident data comprising of over 50,000 incident reports collected since 2011 and additional externally vetted data sources to provide comparative information on ports\u2019 integrity risks.
