Internet connectivity is a necessary pathway to wellness at sea, as revealed by the 2023 SEAFiT Crew Survey. In that regard, we have launched the SAFETY4SEA petition asking industry stakeholders to join our cause for free Internet at sea!

We encourage all stakeholders and seafarers to sign the petition below and join the conversation on social media, using the #Sign4FreeInternetOnboard. We feel that the following two (2) statements should be examined:

1. Should we consider Internet Connectivity an equally important basic seafarer need, at least equally important with Food and Drinking Water?
2. Should we request a regulatory change so that seafarers should be provided with internet connectivity – free of charge during the period of engagement- of appropriate quality and bandwidth that adequately covers the requirements of the ship and takes into account the differing needs and cultural backgrounds?

Let’s raise our voices together for change. Let’s get this to 100,000 signatures!
