Happy World Maritime Day! Here’s to all seafarers who have have undertaken—and are continuing to undertake—extraordinary work, in these extraordinary times.

The International Marine Organization (IMO) has chosen to make 2021 a year of action for seafarers, who are facing unprecedented hardship due to the COVID-19 pandemic, despite their vital role as key workers for global supply chains.

The World Maritime Theme for 2021, “Seafarers: at the core of shipping’s future”, seeks to increase the visibility of seafarers by drawing attention to the invaluable role they play now and will continue to play in future.

To catch up on all the excitement, watch the message from IMO Secretary-General Kitack Lim and find out more on World Maritime Day Parallel Events here.
