Seafarers' Awareness Week

Seafarers’ Awareness Week is an annual event dedicated to recognizing and honoring the vital contribution of maritime workers—those who operate ships that transport goods, fuel, and other essentials globally. It aims to raise awareness about the challenges seafarers face, such as long periods away from home and safety concerns, and to promote their well-being. The week also highlights the importance of healthy, well-trained crew members for global trade and supply chains, encouraging support and appreciation for their essential role in keeping the world connected and functioning smoothly.
