World Maritime Day 2025
The International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) World Maritime Day for 2025 is on 25 September. The theme for this year is “Our Ocean, Our Obligation, Our Opportunity.”
From the IMO website:
The World Maritime Day theme for 2025 “Our Ocean, Our Obligation, Our Opportunity” reflects the ocean’s vital role in the world economy, with more than 80% of global trade transported by sea. The ocean is a source of jobs and food for millions of people, a home for countless marine species, and a regulator of the planet’s climate, mitigating the impacts of climate change.
As the largest sector operating in the ocean space, shipping has a central role to play in the protection of the marine environment and management of ocean resources.
