Singapore Maritime Foundation is first partner of UN maritime transition task force

The foundation will contribute to the task force’s first project in maritime.

The Singapore Maritime Foundation is the first public programme partner of the United Nations-led Maritime Just Transition Task Force, where it will contribute to the task force’s first project on skills in maritime industry.

The task force, founded by the International Chamber of Shipping, United Nations Global Compact, and the International Transport Workers’ Federation, made the announcement during Singapore Maritime Week.

The task force was formed at COP26 in Glasgow to bring together governments, maritime workers’ unions, and the shipping industry to pursue a fair and equitable green transition in shipping. 

It seeks to ensure workers’ rights and developing economies’ access to zero-emission vessels and zero-carbon fuels remain at the centre of policy decisions.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
