About
India, with its extensive coastline of 7,517 km, is strategically positioned for maritime development. Sagarmala, a flagship project, aims to modernize ports, fostering port-led growth. With 95% of trade through sea ports, India is emerging as a maritime power, prioritizing maritime security and the blue economy. Celebrating World Maritime Day 2023, the Maritime Research Centre proposes a webinar to discuss the industry’s global impact, emphasizing safety, security, and environmental concerns. The Centre focuses on advancing oceanic knowledge and sustainable practices. Their Underwater Domain Awareness (UDA) framework, in collaboration with Nirdhwani Technologies, promotes safe and sustainable growth in the Indo-Pacific region.
