The pandemic has highlighted the vital importance of maintaining collaborative multilateral structures and upholding principles of international shipping policy to ensure the continuing provision of efficient maritime supply chains. Shipping is the lifeblood of the global economy. Throughout the pandemic, in the face of travel restrictions and an international crew change crisis, shipping has kept supply chains moving, transporting the energy, food and raw materials, as well as manufactured goods and products, on which twenty-first century life depends.
