16 CSR integration on the platform Crisis 2009 => strategisch totaalplan 2012

17 Relevant SDG s for the port of Antwerp Almost 150,000 people are working (direct and indirect) in the Port of Antwerp. This is important for the companies, the Belgian economy and above all for the employees and their families. Keeping a high diversity and number of decent jobs therefore is essential. Furthermore the created added value of the port community is closely linked to the work carried out by all the motivated employees. Almost 900 companies active in the Port of Antwerp. Leading international industrial, logistic and maritime cluster The Port of Antwerp is convinced that cooperation between public and private partners on a local scale is the key issue in the transition towards a more sustainable port and thus the contribution to all the SDGs. Beside this cooperation is also essential on a national, international and global scale to optimise a sustainable transition of the global supply chain in which ports play an important role. The sustainable transition process of the Port of Antwerp started in 2010 also as a part of the vision: "Strong through collaboration". 16
