June 25, is recognized as World Seafarers Day. The occupation seafarer in layman's term is a sailor. To understand the struggle of sailors: we know that soldier's life is full of sacrifices and struggle, so now imagine you are doing the same, but in the middle of nowhere in the ocean sailing and protecting the country.
On this day, #FairFuture4Seafarers is a worldwide event where people all over the world come together and talk about the issues faced by seafarers. World trade is 30% dependent on sea-trade.
This day is about giving same levels of training, general welfare and safety standards to all seafarers. On this day, let us raise awareness towards the struggles of seafarers and importance of their sea service.
Seafarers are great explorers, some of the greats are Darwin, Vascodigama, Colombus
