The aim is the creation of a network based on a strong partnership among the ports of the involved countries, in order to strengthen the economic potentialities of the partners, through both the development of new markets and those already existing; The enhancement of the endogenous potentials of each partner through activities which point out the natural, cultural and artistic heritage through maritime, cultural and environmental events.
