New Zealand allocates $8.3 million to boost domestic seafarer training, tackling workforce aging and supply-chain risks.
New Zealand is investing $8.3 million from its Coastal Shipping Resilience Fund to expand training for domestic seafarers, addressing an ageing workforce and supply-chain risks.
The funding will cover wages, food, travel, and safety gear for trainees, easing financial burdens on shipping operators and increasing sea time needed for certification.
This support aims to strengthen coastal freight, especially during disasters like Cyclone Gabrielle, when road access fails.
The initiative supports broader maritime roles and aligns with national resilience goals, marking the fourth allocation from a $30 million fund.
