The year 2023 is a milestone for WMU as we mark 40 years. With over 5,800 graduates from 170 countries and territories, WMU is a microcosm of the United Nations. Our legacy is a source of great pride and has a significant impact on the maritime and oceans industry. Our alumni are leading the charge in the maritime and ocean sectors to acheive the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and they will be key in the global recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. After four decades of excellence in maritime education, research and capacity building, the global impact of WMU is undeniable. It is with the support of our donors that we can secure the financial future of WMU to educate many more generations of maritime and ocean leaders, expand our research efforts, and work to ensure a sustainable future for the maritime industry with a clean and healthy ocean for all.
