The Day of the Seafarer is celebrated every year on June 25 to honor the 1.5 million seafarers working around the globe.
In his 2014 message, IMO Secretary-General, Koji Sekimizu, expresses his support and appreciation for their hard work and calls on the international community to show support by completing the sentence “Seafarers brought me…” and sharing it on social media using the hashtag #ThankYouSeafarers.
So we want to hear from you; what have seafarers brought you?
