They are managed by the European Commission, in collaboration with the European Community Shipowners’ Associations (ECSA), the European Shippers Council (ESC) and the European Sea Ports Organisation (ESPO), and the European Federation for Transport & the Environment (T&E).The jury is chaired by Rolf Saether, former President of the Norwegian Shipowners’ Association and founder of the Thor Heyerdahl International Maritime Environmental Award.
