Hello Shipping Podcast lovers, the show is available on all podcast platforms. This is where we talk about the coolest industry on the planet and help raise the maritime industry's profile.  

The shipping industry is the backbone of international trade, contributing to globalisation and development, yet we are the invisible industry. The people within the industry make the world go around; they are maritime professionals – strong characters with an interesting background. I meet them, and we talk about the future of the shipping industry and what's happening right now.

In cyberspace since 2015.

To be able to make a difference in someone's life.  In episode 188, you will listen to Alice Amundsen, Vice President/Senior Adviser Gard AS. She has been the Head of People's Claims, which means that she has been able to make a difference in other people's lives. 

We talk about the difficulties during the pandemic in giving medical assistance to crew onboard ships. Alice is appalled by the countries that refused t repatriate the bodies of the deceased seafarers. Seafarers must be designated keyworkers! 

More governments need to recognise seafarers as key workers and entitle them to the rights required.

Your feedback will be very much appreciated.

Thanks for listening.
