The International Transport Forum
The International Transport Forum is an intergovernmental organisation with 60 member countries. It acts as a think tank for transport policy and organises the Annual Summit of transport ministers.
ITF is the only global body that covers all transport modes.
The ITF is politically autonomous and administratively integrated with the OECD
. The ITF works for transport policies that improve peoples’ lives. Our mission is to foster a deeper understanding of the role of transport in economic growth, environmental sustainability and social inclusion and to raise the public profile of transport policy.

The report was made possible through a voluntary contribution by the International Transport Workers Federation. Data collection for the report benefited from answers to a questionnaire sent to country representatives of both the International Transport Workers Federation and the International Transport Forum. Valuable comments on a draft version of the report were provided by Stephen Perkins, Rex DeightonSmith, Michael Kloth and Edwina Collins (all ITF/OECD), Jonas Teusch (OECD), officials from the International Transport Workers Federation, officials from DG Competition at the European Commission. The report also benefits from valuable contributions from Karin Gourdon (OECD), Bill Hemmings and Faig Abbasov (Transport and Environment). A draft version of the report was discussed in the Transport Research Committee of the International Transport Forum in April 2019. In addition, the report benefits from a panel discussion on “Maximising regional value through maritime connectivity investment“ at the 2019 Summit of the International Transport Forum, held 22-24 May 2019 in Leipzig. This panel, moderated by Pat Cox, consisted of Philippe Alfonso (European Transport Workers Federation), Martin Dorsman (ECSA), Christophe Tytgat (SeaEurope) and Katherine Bamford (Port of Vancouver). Valuable information and perspectives for the study were collected via interviews with: Sveinung Fjose (Menon Economics), Henryk Piatkowski (Polish Seafarers’ Union), Margarida Martins (European Maritime Safety Agency), Catarina Ramos (European Maritime Safety Agency), Jaime Veiga (European Maritime Safety Agency), Jacob Clasen (Danish Shipping), Marcel van den Broek (Nautilus International), Anders Hansson (Norwegian Maritime Officers Association), Kasper van der Gugten (Netherlands Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management), Anne Legregeois (Lawyer), Francesca Baiocchi (Uiltrasporti), Jean-Philippe Chateil (FOMM UGICT CGT), David Dearsley (DM Consulting), Michael Thöne (FiFo Institute for Public Economics at the University of Cologne) and various experts that prefer to remain anonymous.
