University Maritime Platform : connecting professionals

Abstract

Malta’s strategic position in the Mediterranean Sea has impacted its history, culture, and economy. It has also given birth to a vast maritime industry, covering a plethora of areas— legal, environmental, engineering, marine, archaeology, and geology, to name only a few. Identifying this, the government has prioritised the maritime sector. However, it has also recognised that a more integrated approach between stakeholders is required to adopt a strategy for the development of new and improved services on our islands.
