Abstract

Maritime transport is a commercial activity whose existence is linked to water, affects it and sometimes pollutes it. The UN, in its 2030 agenda, set 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with goal 14 for water life. Given that maritime transport is part of life on the water, we tried to examine their impact on the achievement of SDG 14 and focused on the Mediterranean region. We explored the institutional / legal framework that exists for the prevention of pollution from ships and the protection of the marine environment. We have looked at the policies and strategies of international organizations to achieve SDG 14, especially the UN and the EU. We have found that environmental policy, which is directly linked to SDG 14, is not identical but has measurable environmental objectives but are not directly linked to the SDG 14. In conclusion, the regulator of the institutional framework for the operation of shipping is the IMO, which also addresses environmental issues related to shipping. The IMO debate follows regional processes in which the EU has a significant role to play, especially in the Mediterranean region. Tensions / disagreements over the environment and shipping have to do with the individual interests of port / coastal states, flag / opportunity states, developed, developing and less developed countries. The resulting institutional framework and the strategies that will be followed give the shipping community the requirements to move to a better - environmentally neutral mode of operation. The crucial point is the way, the speed and the sharing of the transition costs.
