Today, we celebrate and honor the brave men and women who navigate the vast oceans, connecting continents and delivering goods across the globe. On this special occasion, let us take a moment to recognize the invaluable contributions of seafarers to our world.
On this Day of the Seafarer, let us express our gratitude to these unsung heroes who keep our global trade flowing and our economies thriving. We can show our support by advocating for fair working conditions, promoting mental health awareness, and acknowledging the importance of their role in our lives.
This year’s global theme is ‘Oceans Worth Protecting’ and it aims to highlight seafarers’ contribution to the safety of ships and protection of the marine environment. Seafarers bear a huge responsibility in keeping our oceans clean and protect our planet and for this we salute their discipline.
To all the seafarers out there, we salute you for your unwavering dedication, professionalism, and resilience. Happy Day of the Seafarer! ⚓️🌊
“As the maritime sector continuously works towards making shipping more environmentally sound and sustainable, seafarers play an increasingly important role in helping to protect the health of our ocean and planet” Mr. Kitack Lim – Secretary-General, IMO
