ESG Principles & Sustainable Shipping Regulations

This course delivers a comprehensive framework for understanding and implementing Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) criteria alongside the rapidly evolving decarbonization and sustainability mandates shaping global maritime commerce. Participants explore the mechanical and operational compliance requirements of key international regulations, including the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) carbon intensity metrics and European Union maritime emission rules.
