The International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation (NORAD) project on Safe and Environmentally Sound Ship Recycling in Bangladesh (SENSREC), Work Package 4, Phase II, was awarded to an ACS led consortium of which WMU is a partner.
The project, that is a continuation of SENSREC, Phase I, commenced in April 2016 and is expected to conclude by the end of November 2016. Associate Professor Raphael Baumler is the project leader for WMU.
