Abstract
This Port Reform Toolkit, consisting of
eight modules, presents background information, concrete
examples, and specific tools and methods that public
officials can use to make effective, sustainable reforms of
public institutions that provide port services in developing
countries. In particular it focuses on understanding the
needs, challenges and risks for sector reform; choosing
among options for private sector participation and analyzing
their implications; preparing legislation, contracts and
institutional charters to govern private sector
participation; managing the transition to increased private
sector involvement. The Toolkit presents "best
international practices" in a manner that is relevant
to decision-makers. The Toolkit is designed to be easily
understood by non-specialists. Thus, it attempts to make
general points with concrete examples. It is illustrated
with experience drawn from recent port reform activities
around the world.
