“They fight with the ocean every day and bring smiles to many faces when they reach the short”
Child writer Vaishali.
The International Maritime Day Organization observed “World Maritime Day” on the last Thursday of September. This year, it will be observed on September 28.
According to United Nations data, international shipping transports more than “80 percent of global trade to people and communities all over the world.” The report suggested that shipping is the most efficient method of international transportation for most goods. It provides a dependable, low-cost means of transporting goods globally that facilitates commerce and helps create prosperity among people and nations.
World Maritime Day History–
In 1948, an international conference in Geneva passed a specialized convention that established the IMO, an agency under the United Nations. It was established to develop and maintain a comprehensive regulatory framework for shipping. The main objective of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) remains to focus on areas such as safety, environmental issues, legal issues, technical cooperation, maritime safety, and maritime efficiency. World Maritime Day was celebrated for the first time on March 17, 1978.
