TranSpod The Interview, Arsenio Domínguez, IMO Secretary general

In an exclusive interview, Arsenio Domínguez, Secretary-General of the International Maritime Organization (IMO), outlines the priorities of an institution steering the decarbonization of global shipping.He explains the consequences of a pivotal decision: on 17 October, the IMO agreed to postpone the adoption of its Net Zero Framework to 2026, a move that has sparked both concern and cautious optimism across the maritime world.“Don’t judge the IMO by what happened last week, we have a comprehensive plan to make shipping safer, cleaner and more sustainable”.Why this delay? What are the implications for shipowners, ports, and developing nations?In this in-depth conversation, Arsenio Domínguez discusses the future of clean fuels, autonomous ships, the importance of global — not regional — regulation, and the need to place seafarers and gender equality at the heart of the IMO’s agenda.A clear-eyed, forward-looking exchange on the future of an industry in full transition.🎙️ This interview was recorded on 22 October 2025, during the WISTA International AGM in Barcelona.Un podcast écrit, réalisé et monté par Nathalie Bureau du Colombier. Voix générique Eddy CreuzetVignette Thomas Billet.#maritime #politiques publiquesUn podcast écrit réalisé et produit par Nathalie Bureau du ColombierVoix générique Eddy CreuzetVignette Thomas Billet.Visit our website : https://transpod.fr/Subscribe and leave a review!
