London: IMO Secretary-General Koji Sekimizu has launched this year’s
World Maritime Day theme, “Sustainable development: IMO’s contribution beyond Rio+20”,
calling on governments and the shipping industry to join together and contribute to the formulation
 of sustainable maritime development goals. 
“I am confident that, through this initiative, the theme chosen by the IMO Council
for the 2013 World Maritime Day – ‘Sustainable development: IMO’s contribution
beyond Rio+20’ – will be something in which IMO, the shipping industry and all other
stakeholders, who are keen to turn the concept of sustainability into a tangible reality, will
be able to join together, and make a very positive contribution,” Sekimizu said.  [14/01/13]
