Mackay, Queensland
Australia’s regional ports are in a period of rapid expansion fuelled by the commodities boom. Stories of congestion at ports and queues of ships waiting to be loaded are never far from headlines. The conference will focus on practical solutions to maximise efficiencies: how to manage rapid expansion, maintain freight routes, integrate regional transport, manage safety and security issues, learn effective strategies to attract and retain staff.

Organised by the Sea Power Centre – Australia, with assistance from the School of Humanities & Social Sciences, University of New South Wales at the Australian Defence Force Academy.
The conference aims to analyse the influence of communications on the application of sea power in the broadest possible sense. The content will thus deal with both information and transport, and encompass issues ranging from the strategic importance of sea lines of communication through to the tactical use of communications in war and peace.
