How is technology reshaping maritime safety? Are seafarers being heard?
In this video, the STEER Project team introduces its mission to engage directly with seafarers and understand how technology is impacting their daily work, safety and wellbeing. Drawing on real-world experience, the discussion highlights the growing gap between rapid technological change and the pace of training and skills development.
The video explores why #ListeningToSeafarers is critical to designing safer, more effective systems and how their insights can influence future regulation, equipment standards and operational practices across the maritime industry.
