Delegates, including many Directors-General of shipping, are gathered representing 17 maritime authorities from across the African region. With 1.3 billion people and a combined GDP of $3.5 trillion dollars, Africa is one of the world\u2019s biggest growth markets.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cMany shipowners are already ordering vessels with new designs, powered by alternative fuels and equipped with new technologies. More orders will be made of these new vessels. But the question is: do we have the crew to operate them?\u201d asks\u00a0<strong>Helio Vicente,<\/strong>\u00a0senior manager of trade policy and employment affairs at global shipowners group, the International Chamber of Shipping.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Research commissioned by the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ics-shipping.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Position-Paper-Mapping-a-Maritime-Just-Transition-for-Seafarers-%E2%80%93-Maritime-Just-Transition-Task-Force-2022-OFFICIAL.pdf\">Maritime Just Transition Task Force found as many as 800,000 seafarers<\/a>\u00a0could require additional\u00a0 training by the mid-2030s to handle low and zero-carbon fuels such as hydrogen and ammonia if the IMO adopts a target for net zero emissions for shipping by 2050 in line with the 1.5 C goal of the Paris Agreement in July, as many expect it to.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Task Force experts say as the industry cuts carbon pollution and moves away from fossil\u00a0 fuels to alternative low to zero carbon in anticipation of July\u2019s decision, the training and maritime job opportunities are growing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Addressing conference delegates, Vicente said, \u201cThere is already a shortfall in officers and almost 90,000 additional officers will be needed by 2026. Africa has the opportunity to step up and help provide the world with these seafarers and more, trained with the skills needed for the future.\u201d He said that a future global centre of maritime excellence for seafarer training could be based in Africa, bringing with it more jobs and wider benefits for the region.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cAfrica can leverage the strategic opportunities of this shipping revolution.
