Civic Exchange has organized a highly targeted workshop to explore the possibility of developing partnerships between environmentally-responsible shipping lines, ports and manufacturers with the aim of reducing marine air pollution and its associated public health impacts in the Pearl River Delta.

The workshop outlined the current knowledge on the public health impacts, regulation of marine emissions worldwide, and approaches for voluntary collaboration to reduce emissions in the Pearl River Delta.
