The 2026-2027 World Maritime Day theme 'From Policy to Practice: Powering Maritime Excellence' focuses on translating international rules into action at sea and on shore.
The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has launched a two-year global initiative to promote the World Maritime Day theme for 2026-2027: ‘From Policy to Practice: Powering Maritime Excellence’.
In a video message marking the launch, IMO Secretary-General Arsenio Dominguez stressed that the global regulatory framework developed by IMO must not merely be adopted in principle, but translated into concrete actions and real-world results that deliver tangible benefits for all.
