Singapore Maritime Foundation is first partner of UN maritime transition task force

The foundation will contribute to the task force’s first project in maritime.

The Singapore Maritime Foundation is the first public programme partner of the United Nations-led Maritime Just Transition Task Force, where it will contribute to the task force’s first project on skills in maritime industry.

The task force, founded by the International Chamber of Shipping, United Nations Global Compact, and the International Transport Workers’ Federation, made the announcement during Singapore Maritime Week.

The task force was formed at COP26 in Glasgow to bring together governments, maritime workers’ unions, and the shipping industry to pursue a fair and equitable green transition in shipping. 

It seeks to ensure workers’ rights and developing economies’ access to zero-emission vessels and zero-carbon fuels remain at the centre of policy decisions.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
