Abstract: The Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships (HKC), adopted in 2009 by the International Maritime Organization (IMO), is a significant step toward ensuring sustainable practices in the global maritime industry. It addresses environmental, safety, and health concerns throughout a ship's entire lifecycle—from design and construction to final dismantling. This assignment aims to map out the complete lifecycle of a ship under HKC guidelines, explain the responsibilities of key stakeholders at each phase, and identify challenges that hinder effective implementation.
