The European IWT sector is currently facing numerous challenges. The ongoing climate change demands a greener industry, which emits less or no more greenhouse gasses and handles its wastes in a proper way. There is furthermore a growing shortage of available staff and the current workers in the industry are aging. Moreover, there is no common standard yet for the education and training of future IWT crews, although there is an instrument in development for the EU states at this moment.
