    IMO,  the International Maritime Organization, is the United Nations specialized agency with responsibility for the safety and security of shipping and the prevention of marine and atmospheric pollution by ships. IMO aims at promoting safety and security through environmentally sound and sustainable shipping.

    The shipping industry, with the support of the IMO regulatory framework, has started the transition towards this sustainable future. IMO has  adopted  measures to cut greenhouse gas emissions, reduce the sulphur content of ships’ fuel oil, implement the Ballast Water Management Convention, protect the polar regions, reduce marine litter, improve the efficiency of shipping through the electronic exchange of information, meet the challenges of the digitalization of shipping and enhance the participation of women in the maritime community.
    World Maritime Day Theme 2025

    The theme for World Maritime Day 2025 is “Our Ocean, Our Obligation, Our Opportunity.”

    This theme highlights the crucial role of the world’s oceans in the global economy and environment. It recognizes that over 80% of global trade is transported by sea, making the oceans vital for jobs, food, and climate regulation.

    The theme is broken down into three key ideas:

    • Our Ocean: This part acknowledges the immense value of the ocean as a resource and a shared heritage. It’s the lifeblood of global trade and a home for countless marine species.
    • Our Obligation: This emphasizes the collective duty of the shipping industry and all related stakeholders to protect the marine environment. It points to the need for sustainable practices and adherence to international regulations to ensure cleaner, safer seas.
    • Our Opportunity: This highlights the chance to innovate and lead in ocean protection. It’s a call for collaboration and new solutions to address challenges like plastic pollution, climate change, and the conservation of marine biodiversity. The theme encourages all to see ocean stewardship not just as a duty, but as a chance to build a more sustainable future.

    The International Maritime Organization (IMO) selected this theme to underscore the deep connection between shipping and the ongoing global efforts to protect the ocean.

      World Maritime Day is a global observance led by the International Maritime Organization (IMO). It highlights the importance of shipping in world trade and the economy. The day also promotes awareness of maritime safety and marine environmental protection. It reminds us of the critical role seafarers and shipping play daily. The event is marked worldwide with activities, workshops, and campaigns.

      When is World Maritime Day celebrated?

      World Maritime Day is celebrated every year on the last Thursday of September. The date may vary each year but remains within that month. It was first celebrated in 1978 after the IMO was formed. The day emphasizes global cooperation in shipping safety and pollution prevention. It is officially observed by all IMO member states.

      Why is World Maritime Day important?

      The day underlines how shipping supports global trade and connects nations. About 80–90% of world trade is transported by sea. It raises awareness about seafarers’ contributions and maritime security. It also reminds governments of their duty to protect the marine environment. Celebrating the day fosters international collaboration on shipping challenges.

      Who organizes World Maritime Day?

      The International Maritime Organization (IMO), a United Nations agency, organizes World Maritime Day. The IMO has 174 member states and works globally. It sets regulations to ensure maritime safety and environmental protection. Every year, IMO hosts events, seminars, and activities worldwide. Member states also hold their own celebrations in ports and institutions.

      What does the IMO do?

      The International Maritime Organization regulates global shipping. It creates conventions to ensure safety, security, and pollution prevention at sea. It develops training standards for seafarers to ensure competence. IMO also supports developing countries with maritime training and capacity building. Its goal is a safe, secure, and environmentally sound shipping industry.

      How does shipping impact world trade?

      Shipping is considered the backbone of global trade. Nearly 90% of goods are transported by sea. This includes food, energy, raw materials, and manufactured products. Without shipping, international trade and the global economy would collapse. World Maritime Day reminds us of this essential connection.

      What conventions are linked with World Maritime Day?

      Key IMO conventions are often highlighted on this day. SOLAS ensures safety of life at sea. MARPOL prevents pollution from ships. STCW sets training and certification standards for seafarers. Together, these conventions form the backbone of maritime regulations.

      How does World Maritime Day promote environmental protection?

      The day emphasizes reducing marine pollution from ships. It highlights measures against oil spills, air emissions, and waste disposal. The IMO develops rules like MARPOL to safeguard oceans. It also supports cleaner technologies and alternative fuels for ships. The celebration raises global awareness about protecting marine ecosystems.

      How is World Maritime Day celebrated worldwide?

      Countries hold events such as seminars, maritime exhibitions, and awareness campaigns. Ports and shipping companies organize safety drills and training. Schools and institutions host educational programs on maritime topics. Special ceremonies are held to honor seafarers’ contributions. The IMO also hosts a global event with international participation.

      What role do seafarers play on World Maritime Day?

      Seafarers are central to the celebration. They operate ships that carry most of the world’s goods. Their work ensures safe and timely delivery of essential supplies. The day acknowledges their sacrifices and challenges, including long months at sea. It reminds the world to respect and support seafarers’ welfare.
