Global Maritime Forum

Founded in 2017, Global Maritime Forum is a foundation based in Copenhagen K, Denmark working on environment & climate, employment & skills, health.

The Global Maritime Forum is an independent not-for-profit foundation based in Copenhagen that works to shape the future of global seaborne trade. It brings together companies and leaders across the maritime value chain to address challenges such as decarbonisation and seafarer welfare. Its work includes the human sustainability programme, which focuses on working conditions, mental and physical well-being, and career development for seafarers and maritime workers, and decarbonisation initiatives such as the Getting to Zero Coalition, Poseidon Principles and Green Corridors Initiative. The organisation runs an Annual Summit in a different maritime capital each year, publishes research and insights, and is funded through grants and partner contributions. It operates independently and does not support individual technologies or companies.
