Because of seafarers and other key workers, we were able to beat back the worst of the crisis and begin the long road to economic and health recovery. However, in too many cases, crews had their international and national rights blindly disregarded by national governments,\u201d said\u00a0<strong>David Heindel, SRI Advisory Board Member<\/strong> and chair of the ITF Seafarers\u2019 Section.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\" xml:lang=\"EN-GB\">\u201cOur industry came together to advocate for seafarers during the crew change crisis, and we had important successes on their behalf. Now we want to take that spirit of cooperation forward and apply it to new, shared challenges,\u201d said Heindel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\" xml:lang=\"EN-GB\">Priorities for the group include lobbying governments on improving training and career pathways, pushing for better recognition of seafarers, and securing support for the proposals put out recently in the Maritime Just Transition Task Force\u2019s\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ics-shipping.org\/press-release\/shipping-decarbonization-action-plan-launched-to-upskill-global-seafaring-workforce\/\">action plan<\/a><span lang=\"EN-GB\" xml:lang=\"EN-GB\">. The plan will be showcased at the upcoming IMO MEPC environment meeting taking place 12 December in London as the UN\u2019s key maritime body grapples with setting a new carbon reduction target.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\" xml:lang=\"EN-GB\">ICS Secretary General\u00a0Guy Platten\u00a0said the chamber was confident the MOU would bring benefits to shipowners and seafarers alike, including securing the clearer signals from regulators needed for investments in low and zero-carbon vessels, infrastructure and technologies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\" xml:lang=\"EN-GB\">\u201cThis MOU helps to take our important policy discussions to the next stage \u2013 industry action. Together, we are more effective at getting the practical commitments needed to drive decarbonisation.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\" xml:lang=\"EN-GB\">\u201cThis MOU is about showing seafarers, as much as anyone else, that our industry has not lost sight of what can be achieved on their behalf if we put aside small differences, stand back, and advocate together on crew\u2019s behalf. In short: when it matters, shipping speaks as one.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\" xml:lang=\"EN-GB\">IMEC chairman\u00a0Captain\u00a0Belal Ahmed\u00a0also welcomed the memorandum. Maritime employers wanted to be involved with the training elements of the Just Transition work, in particular \u2013 engaging with governments, which provide much of the world\u2019s seafarer training and regulate important domestic qualification standards.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\" xml:lang=\"EN-GB\">\u201cDuring the pandemic and crew change crisis it was clear just how important national governments are \u2013 for our global industry and its global workforce. It was their decisions which determined if seafarers could be relieved and go home. States will be equally as critical when it comes to formulating and resourcing the training systems of tomorrow. When we do have governments\u2019 attention, we must make it count,\u201d said Capt. Ahmed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\" xml:lang=\"EN-GB\">Captain Ahmed said that with the rapid introduction of new technology, \u201cOur industry faces a huge challenge to have our seafarers ready in time. Engineering, tech and manufacturing companies involved in introducing new machinery on board ships have a responsibility to join Just Transition efforts,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\" xml:lang=\"EN-GB\">\u201cThe signing of this MOU sends a clear signal that these important maritime communities are once again engaged in the kind of dialogue that brings strength of voice and stability to our sector\u2019s future,\u201d Capt.
