Cargo ships are essential to international trade and transportation because they make it easier for products to be transported throughout the globe. They are essential for maintaining the supply chain of various products, including essential goods like food, medical supplies, and energy resources.
Cargo ships have a big influence on infection control and health, as seen by the way they keep essential supplies of products flowing during health emergencies, but they also pose a danger for spreading illness. Professionals in the maritime industry should thus be aware of these possible hazards.
The purpose of this project is to create an instructional video resource that will educate maritime professional on how to prevent the spread of infection during the pandemic. The project's goals are raising awareness about preventing infection during the pandemic and it seeks to increase their knowledge, promote behaviour change, and reduce infection risks among them.
The video illustrates infection prevention practices on cargo ships and is directed towards maritime professionals, focusing on the proper hand hygiene. The content of the video aligns primarily with the guidelines and recommendations of two key organizations in the context of infection prevention, the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Maritime Organization (IMO). The video has undergone revisions based on feedback to ensure its effectiveness and accuracy in promoting infection prevention measures within the maritime industry. Collaborating with the maritime logistics research center project known as DESSEV, this endeavor focuses on the development of a decision-support system aimed at mitigating pandemic-related risks aboard seagoing vessels.
