Regional Maritime University: Safe work: a pathway to sustainable blue economy development
Lloyd's Register Foundation awarded a grant of GBP 146,915 to Regional Maritime University for work in Ghana, dated 23 June 2026.
Overview
The maritime sector is central to the global economy, providing food (fisheries), transport (shipping), and energy (offshore platforms), yet it is also one of the most hazardous industries, with high accident and fatality rates. While many interventions have been implemented globally to promote occupational health and safety of seafarers, available literature shows isolated reports on such interventions. This study provides a synthesis of evidence on implemented interventions and their effectiveness in promoting occupational health and safety of seafarers, to support the development of a practice guide to enhance the implementation of actionable recommendations to promote safe work.
