Mission & Goals
The Global Maritime Forum is founded on the idea that progress happens when people from all parts of a system – in this case the global maritime industry and its stakeholders – come together to discuss challenges and work together on finding new solutions. It is our objective to shape the future of global seaborne trade to increase sustainable long-term economic development and human wellbeing. GMF serves as a broader platform for dialogue and collaborative action, including the Getting to Zero Coalition. The Getting to Zero Coalition is an industry-led platform for collaboration that brings together leading stakeholders from across the maritime- and fuels value chains with the financial sector and others committed to making commercially viable zero-emission vessels a scalable reality by 2030, towards full decarbonization by 2050. It is managed by the Global Maritime Forum, who initially founded the Coalition together with the World Economic Forum and Friends of Ocean Action.
