IMO的职责（4）：可持续发展
In september 2015, the UN’s 193 Member States unanimously adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, including the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and 169 related targets. Hailed as a historic agreement forging a pathway to sustainability, the 2030 Agenda has been called a plan of action for “people, planet and prosperity”.
2015年9月，联合国193个成员国一致通过了《2030年可持续发展议程》。该议程包含17项可持续发展目标和169项具体目标，被誉为“为可持续发展铺平道路的历史性协议”，和为人类、地球与繁荣制定的行动计划。
As part of the United Nations family, IMO is actively working towards the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the associated SDGs.
国际海事组织（IMO）作为联合国大家庭的一员，IMO一直积极致力于推动落实《2030年可持续发展议程》及其相关的可持续发展目标（SDGs）。
SDG1：No Poverty
End poverty in all its forms everywhere
可持续发展目标1：无贫穷
在全世界消除一切形式的贫穷
Billions of people all over the world rely on maritime transport in their everyday lives – even though they may not realise it. As the most cost-effective and fuel-efficient way to carry goods, shipping forms the backbone of world trade. It provides a dependable, low-cost means of transport, facilitating commerce and helping create prosperity among nations and peoples.
全球数十亿人的日常生活都离不开海运，即便他们或许并未意识到这一点。航运是性价比最优、最绿色节能的货运方式，是世界贸易的支柱。它通过提供可信赖、低成本的运输方式，促进商业往来，帮助各国民众共创繁荣。
IMO is the global standard-setting authority for international shipping. It has adopted more than 50 international instruments which, together, create a regulatory framework that ensures shipping is safe, secure and environment-friendly.
IMO作为国际航运的全球标准制定机构，已通过国际公约50余项。这些公约共同构建起了保障航运安全、海上保安与海洋环保的监管框架。
SDG2：Zero Hunger
End poverty in all its forms everywhereEnd hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture
可持续发展目标2：零饥饿
消除饥饿，实现粮食安全，改善营养状况和促进可持续农业
IMO is working with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) to address illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing. IUU Fishing is a serious issue for the global fishing sector that impacts negatively on safety, on environmental issues, on conservation and on sustainability. In addition to harming fish populations, IUU fishing creates unfair market competition for – and threatens the livelihoods of – fishers who follow sustainable practices.
IMO携手联合国粮食及农业组织（FAO）共同打击非法、不报告和不管制的捕捞活动（IUU捕捞）。IUU捕捞严重危及全球渔业，并对安全、环境、资源保护与可持续发展均造成不利影响。既损害鱼群资源，也使守规渔民面临不公平竞争与生计威胁。此类捕捞行为不仅破坏了渔业资源，更对遵法守纪的渔民造成了不公平的市场竞争环境，威胁其生计。
SDG3：Good Health and Well-being
Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages
可持续发展目标3：良好健康与福祉
确保健康的生活方式，促进各年龄段人群的福祉
More than a billion people live in coastal areas and this number is set to increase sharply in the coming years. IMO's conventions and other instruments not only contribute to the reduction of shipping-related pollution in the wider oceans, but also in ports and coastal regions. For example, atmospheric emissions from ships are strictly regulated globally.
全球有超过十亿人生活在沿海地区，且这一数字预计在未来数年还将急剧上升。IMO制定的国际公约及其配套文书，不仅有助于减少远洋航运污染，更有助于改善港口及沿海区域的环境质量。例如：在全球范围内，严格管控船舶大气污染物排放。
SDG4：Quality Education
Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all
可持续发展目标4：优质教育
确保包容和公平的优质教育，让全民终身享有学习机会
In the maritime world, education and training are vital. But their importance extends far beyond shipping itself. The safety and security of life at sea, the protection of the marine environment and the efficient movement of global trade depend on the professionalism and competence of seafarers. IMO's International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW) sets global standards of competence for seafarers and effective mechanisms for enforcing its provisions.
教育与培训在航海领域至关重要，其重要性远超航运本身。海上人命安全、海洋环境保护以及全球贸易的高效流通，皆依赖于海员的专业素养与业务能力。IMO《海员培训、发证和值班标准国际公约》（STCW公约）确立了全球通用的海员适任标准，并建立了有效的履约机制。
IMO also contributes to inclusive and high-quality education by providing training activities, in particular through its technical cooperation programmes and its global maritime training institutions – the World Maritime University (WMU) and the IMO International Maritime Law Institute (IMLI).
