The Fair Winds Charter is a good example of public-private-NGO sector collaboration that can create the framework for future legislation covering emissions throughout the Pearl River Delta (PRD). The Fair Winds Charter is the first agreement of its kind. The Charter calls on regional governments to regulate the shipping sector. This report explains the importance of stakeholder engagement in increasing policy understanding and acceptance, the value of data and cross-disciplinary research in air quality and public health for developing a compelling case for policy change; and how the science and stakeholder engagement stimulated regulatory change under the public-private- NGO umbrella of engagement.
