Iro Daskalaki, founder of Kales Thalasses me Ygeia kai Asfaleia, an initiative promoting seafarers’ health and safety, joined “Fair Winds and Following Seas” on Voice of Greece to discuss the initiative’s recent conference at the Aspropyrgos Merchant Marine Academy.
“Everything in shipping is changing fast, from ship design and alternative fuels to artificial intelligence, regulations, and safety. That’s why young people entering this wonderful industry need to keep up with developments and keep learning. Competition is fierce,” Daskalaki said.
Shipping professionals discussed what shipowners look for in new hires, how technology is shaping maritime safety, and how seafarers can stay healthy. Students took an active part, asking questions and sharing their views on the careers ahead of them
