- This event has passed.
The Symposium, entitled ‘Extreme Maritime Weather: Bridging the Knowledge Gap Towards Safer Shipping’, aims at finding possible solutions to minimize the risks created by extreme maritime weather events – those which are dangerous to any ship at sea and are a threat to life, property, and the marine environment, notwithstanding also the economic impacts to the global blue economy. It will also provide an update on developments, building upon the first Joint Symposium in 2019.
The Symposium will serve as a contribution to the UN Decade on Ocean Science for Sustainable Development and the UN Early Warnings for All initiatives.
