乌克兰局势下：为会员和海员提供的帮助
俄乌局势对海运业、全球贸易、船东、租船人甚至海员都有深远影响。
乌克兰和俄罗斯海员分别占海员总数的 10.5% 和 4%（2021 年 BIMCO 数据），而他们都已经切实感受到俄乌局势带来的影响。海员及其家属直接被卷入战争，处境非常危险、异常艰难。船上的海员都非常担心家人的情况，尤其是与家人失去联系、但在海上却又无法重新建立通讯渠道时。疫情期间船员换班存在不确定性，加之无法与亲人取得联络，海员的心理健康防线随时可能崩溃。
标准保赔协会乌克兰局势工作小组
为应对俄乌冲突，标准保赔协会内部成立了由索赔、承保、风险、合规、制裁和财务等部门代表组成的工作小组。这个内部团队密切关注俄乌之间不断演变的局势，并负责研究其对会员的潜在影响。
建议会员和经纪人直接联系协会常用联系人，咨询保险、制裁和防损相关事宜。工作小组将对问题进行记录并沟通协调，利用专业知识为会员和经纪人消除疑虑。
要获取有关乌克兰冲突的最新新闻、洞察和制裁最新消息，可以通过标准保赔协会官网 俄乌专题报道的新闻页面查看。
标准保赔协会继续致力于提升海员福祉
标准保赔协会密切关注着俄乌局势对海员心理健康的影响。除工作小组提供的帮助外，协会官网的 海员福祉专题页面 中还提供系列资源，重点涵盖海员的身心健康和社会福利等内容。特别值得关注的是 2019 年获奖的“海员福祉海报”。海报专为在船舶上张贴而设计，并就船员在海上期间如何照料个人起居、如何保障自身福祉等内容提供建议。
为会员和海员提供的慈善帮助
标准保赔协会继续与慈善伙伴紧密合作，为有助于提升海员身心健康的宝贵倡议做出积极贡献，这在当前当前充满挑战的时期至关重要。为应对乌克兰冲突，以下组织为海员提供专门援助：
1. The International Seafarers’ Welfare and Assistance Network (ISWAN)
任何受乌克兰危机影响的海员或其家属都可以通过 SeafarerHelp 获得情感支持。ISWAN 免费提供 24 小时多语种服务热线。SeafarerHelp 团队每周 7 天随时愿意聆听任何焦虑不安或需要找人倾诉的海员或其家属的心声。可以通过 www.seafarerhelp.org 与该团队取得联系并进行实时聊天。
ISWAN 还代表国际海员援助基金 (Seafarers International Relief Fund) 管理新设立的乌克兰危机援助基金 (Ukraine Crisis Support Fund)。乌克兰危机援助基金是一项小额赠款基金，专为受乌克兰危机影响、急需经济帮助的海员及其家属设立。该基金提供高达 500 美元的一次性赠款，可用于支付医疗费、租金、生活费或儿童教育资金在内的费用。如果乌克兰危机直接造成海员死亡，其近亲可获得最高达 1000 美元的补偿。乌克兰危机援助基金不受理海员个人提出的申请 – 需由以海员为中心的组织（包括海事福利慈善机构、海事工会、港口福利委员会、船舶管理公司或配员代理）代表海员或其家属进行申请。要了解更多信息，请访问 ISWAN 官网： www.seafarerswelfare.org/relief-funds/ukraine-crisis-support-fund。

Stella Maris 乌克兰籍总监、敖德萨港口牧师 Oleksandr Smerechynsky 神父和船舶访客 Rostyslav 正在与当地教会和援助机构联系，安排向船舶运送紧急物资和药品，同时为该市居民提供精神关怀。
Alex 神父已经开始每周为乌克兰海员及其家属录制主日福音章节和反思视频。Stella Maris 通过其社交媒体共享相关资源。
Stella Maris 完全支持国际海事组织的倡议，即确保海员平安、安全，确保海员不成为大规模政治和军事危机的间接受害者。
