Maria Hadjioannou of Alassia Newships Management and Second Vice President of the Board of Directors of the HELMEPA (Hellenic Marine Environment Protection Association) spoke to Voice of Greece and the program “Fair Winds and Following Seas” about HELMEPA’s mission, activities, and contribution to marine environmental protection during an event held at Posidonia 2026.
“Since Ms. Paliou became President and Ms. Stavropoulou assumed the role of Director General, HELMEPA has gained new momentum and vitality. The organization has become more outward-looking and much closer to the people of the shipping industry and to our seafarers. Its programs are numerous and highly engaging, and through them we aim to reach as many people as possible and encourage broader participation in the effort to protect the marine environment,” Ms. Hadjioannou noted.
