Overview
As the maritime sector transitions to low and zero-carbon fuels, new safety, technological and regulatory challenges are emerging. Led by the University of Strathclyde, the International Safe Maritime Decarbonisation Network (ISMDN) brings together researchers, industry experts and policymakers from around the world to ensure safety remains at the heart of maritime decarbonisation.
The project will create a global platform for collaboration, helping identify critical knowledge gaps, map existing evidence and develop shared priorities for future research and action. Through international partnerships, stakeholder engagement and pilot activities, ISMDN aims to strengthen the evidence base needed to support a safe, inclusive and equitable transition to net zero shipping.
By connecting expertise across regions, disciplines and sectors, the network will explore emerging risks associated with alternative fuels and new technologies, while building consensus on the research and solutions needed to address them. The project's findings will help guide future safety practices, policy development and innovation across the maritime industry, contributing to a decarbonised future that is safe for people, assets and the environment.
