## Description

The International Federation of Shipmasters' Associations (IFSMA), established in 1974, is dedicated to ensuring safe operational practices and the professional competence of seafarers worldwide. With its headquarters in London, IFSMA maintains a strong connection to the International Maritime Organization (IMO), holding Consultative Status since 1975. This enables the federation to represent the interests of shipmasters and influence maritime safety policies. 

IFSMA's structure includes an Executive Council, supported by a dedicated Secretariat, which actively participates in key committees and sub-committees of the IMO. The federation is committed to promoting a robust safety culture within the shipping industry, advocating for comprehensive regulations like the ISM Code and the STCW Convention. They provide members with access to vital IMO resources and actively engage in global seminars and training initiatives. 

By fostering collaboration among maritime professionals, including shipowners and management companies, IFSMA aims to enhance maritime safety standards and environmental protection, ultimately contributing to cleaner oceans and safer navigation.
