summary
People working at sea - merchant seafarers and distant water fishers (DWF) spend months and years at sea working in arduous and dangerous conditions. From recruitment to repatriation, many face hardships of different levels, sometimes even to the extent where they may be classified as inhumane. Though this course will be primarily aimed at merchant seafarers, the plight of DWF will also be touched upon. As this course is aimed at the Maldivian shipping industry, some focus will be put on the local seafarers’ issues as well.
The course will outline the primary issues faced by the crew from the time they join the vessels till they leave them and what measures can be taken by all the stakeholders in the shipping industry to alleviate their hardships.
