IMO explains what “Navigating the future: safety first!” means​

Arsenio Dominguez, the Secretary-General of the International Maritime Organization (IMO), has released a video message on this year’s World Maritime Day theme, Navigating the future: safety first!

IMO selected Navigating the future: safety first! as the 2024 World Maritime Theme, which will culminate in the celebration of World Maritime Day on 26 September 2024. According to the organization, this theme was chosen to promote maritime safety in an era of new technologies and alternative fuels.The theme also reflects IMO’s work to enhance maritime safety and security, in tandem with the protection of the marine environment, whilst ensuring its regulatory development process safely anticipates the fast pace of technological change and innovation. Furthermore, 2024 marks 50 years since the adoption of the 1974 SOLAS Convention, the key IMO treaty regulating maritime safety.
