‘It’s Not Whether Ports Can Adapt...’: Can Global Trade Survive Climate Change? | Sagarmanthan 2026
Rising sea levels, extreme weather and coastal flooding are exposing ports and maritime infrastructure to growing climate risks. As disruptions threaten global trade, the challenge is no longer simply whether ports can adapt, but how quickly they can build resilience.In this Sagarmanthan Studio discussion, experts examine how countries can future-proof ports, strengthen maritime connectivity and integrate climate resilience into infrastructure planning. They also explore sustainable blue-economy development, the importance of incorporating environmental priorities into economic decisions, and how to create greater value from ocean resources.
Featuring Mohamed Abdelsameaa, Director of the General Administration for Climate Change Risk Studies at Egypt’s Cabinet Information and Decision Support Center (IDSC), and Alexandra Leeper, CEO of Iceland Ocean Cluster and Board Member of Danish Ocean Cluster.
Moderated by Ricardo Sanchez, Co-Chair of the Kühne Professorial Chair of Logistics at Universidad de los Andes, Colombia.
