The IMO Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC) met for its 83rd session in person at IMO Headquarters in London where it approved the IMO Net-zero Framework, the first in the world to combine mandatory emissions limits and GHG pricing across an entire industry sector.

We are pleased to introduce Ipieca’s new interactive dashboard, built on insights from our annual sustainability reporting survey. This tool highlights key findings from surveys conducted since 2012, enabling year-on-year comparisons of reporting practices and changing priorities across the industry.

26 September is World Maritime Day 2024. This year’s theme ‘Navigating the future: safety first’ reflects the IMO's work to enhance maritime safety and security, in tandem with the protection of the marine environment. The theme also provides the opportunity to focus on the safety implications arising from the introduction of alternative fuels including measures to reduce GHG emissions from ships.

This new resource supports oil, gas and alternative energy companies and practitioners to undertake engagement with local stakeholders that moves beyond meeting the minimum expectations, by providing guidance on broader, inclusive and ongoing two-way processes for ‘meaningful engagement’.

The International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples takes place annually on 9 August to celebrate Indigenous Peoples and their knowledge. The theme this year is ‘Protecting the rights of Indigenous Peoples in voluntary isolation and initial contact’.

The increasing global movement of people and goods elevates the risk of the introduction, spread, and establishment of invasive alien species (IAS), impacting biodiversity and businesses. Ipieca and IOGP are pleased to launch updated guidance for prevention and management.
