The International Maritime Organization (IMO) is inviting shipping companies worldwide to a dedicated workshop to explore the global expansion of the NextWave Seafarers Project.<\/p>\n
Developed with support from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Bahri Shipping Line, the NextWave Seafarers Project provides essential onboard training to cadets from Least Developed Countries (LDCs) and Small Island Developing States (SIDS). The initiative aims to develop a future-ready maritime workforce, while addressing the global seafarer shortage.<\/p>\n
