About YoungShip Cyprus

YoungShip Cyprus was founded in 2012 as a youth organization focusing on shipping and aims to promote the voice of young people in decision-making centers nationally and internationally. Our role is to promote the new generation in the field of shipping, providing them with information and organizing activities that help develop and enhance their skills, as well as the acquisition of new knowledge and experience. Young people are the most important asset of Cyprus, and we must rightly so invest in them.

The main objectives of YoungShip Cyprus are:

• To encourage members to develop ideas, implement projects and initiatives with a view to wider development of shipping in Cyprus and the active presence of members as young professionals in the global maritime community.

Through our activities, we offer the opportunity to our members to develop their personal as well as professional acquaintances, as well as to be educated, informed, and trained on issues that concern shipping locally and globally.
