ITF：海员必须为航运气候转型的核心
Seafarers must be at the heart of shipping’s climate transition, says ITF
国际运输工人联盟 (ITF) 敦促各国政府利用未来一年重建信任，并就公平、切实可行的航运脱碳途径达成协议——以海员为核心的协议。
The International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF) has urged governments to use the coming year to rebuild trust and reach agreement on a fair and practical path to decarbonising shipping — one that puts seafarers at its core.
国际海事组织（IMO）于10月17日决定将其净零排放框架的投票延后一年。该框架预计将概述实施IMO 2023年温室气体（GHG）策略的措施，包括时间表和业界参与者的义务。
The call follows the decision by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) on 17 October to postpone the vote on its Net-Zero Framework for one year. The framework was expected to outline measures for implementing the IMO’s 2023 greenhouse gas (GHG) strategy, including timelines and obligations for industry actors.
ITF海员部门协调员 Fabrizio Barcellona表示，这项决定反映了未来任务的复杂性和重要性，但他警告说，行业不能因此停滞不前。
ITF Seafarers’ Section Coordinator, Fabrizio Barcellona, said the decision reflects the complexity and importance of the task ahead – but warned that the industry cannot afford to stand still.
他表示：「虽然延迟投票反映了这未来决策的复杂性和重要性，但航运脱碳进程刻不容缓，而且一旦缺乏海员参与，就无法成功。
“While this delay reflects the complexity and importance of the decisions ahead, the process of decarbonising shipping cannot wait – and it cannot succeed without seafarers,” Barcellona said.
「海员和整个业界已在不断进步，运作更新、更环保的船舶，并培育推动航运转型所需的技能。这项工作不能、也不会停止。」
“Seafarers and the industry are already moving ahead, operating new and cleaner vessels and developing the skills that will power the maritime transition. This work cannot and will not stop.”
Barcellona表示，ITF希望未来一年，国际海事组织成员之间能加强信任和重建共识，确保未来的决策既支持产业的转型，也支持实现转型的专业海员。
Barcellona said the ITF hopes the year ahead will be used to strengthen trust and rebuild consensus at the IMO, ensuring that future decisions support both the industry’s transition and the professional seafarers who will deliver it.
他说：「我们敦促国际海事组织成员国继续与行业伙伴合作，采取必要措施，以实现安全、公正和公平过渡的航运未来。」
“We urge IMO Member States to continue working collaboratively with industry partners to take the necessary measures toward a safe, just and fair maritime future,” he said.
ITF代表全球700多个运输工会，其中包括数十万名海员。该联盟持续倡导航运业的公平转型——在航运业转向新燃料和新技术的过程中，优先考虑海员安全、技能和体面的劳动环境。
The ITF represents over 700 transport unions worldwide, including hundreds of thousands of seafarers. The Federation continues to advocate for a just transition in shipping – one that prioritises safety, skills, and decent work as the industry shifts to new fuels and technologies.
