IMMA’s London launch
A new trade association armed with a broad mandate to represent and promote the health and medical interests of the world’s seafarers, port workers and cruise passengers as well as improve shipboard hygiene was launched in London this month.
The International Maritime Medical Association (IMMA) will look after the medical interests of those involved in the shipping industry worldwide and work to lobby politicians and regulators. It will work alongside, and draw on the medical expertise, of the International Maritime Health Association, an existing members’ association for maritime doctors and port clinics. The not for profit organisation will operate out of the Baltic Exchange in London.
