A quick definition of Intergovernmental Maritime Consultative Organization:

Intergovernmental Maritime Consultative Organization (IMCO) is a group of countries that work together to make sure ships are safe and the people who work on them are trained properly. They make rules that all ships on the open seas have to follow to keep everyone safe. IMCO is part of the United Nations.

A more thorough explanation:

The Intergovernmental Maritime Consultative Organization (IMCO) is a specialized agency of the United Nations that is responsible for setting international standards for vessel safety and personnel training for shipping on the open seas.

For example, IMCO has developed the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), which sets minimum safety standards for ships engaged in international voyages. This includes requirements for lifesaving equipment, fire protection, and navigation equipment.

Another example is the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW), which establishes minimum training, certification, and watchkeeping standards for seafarers worldwide.

These examples illustrate how IMCO works to ensure that ships and their crews are safe and well-trained, which helps to prevent accidents and protect the marine environment.

Nah, the fucked up thing about therapists is they try and make you think your parents are your enemy 99% of the time and really they should be telling you that your parents have almost no effect on the rest of your life. If they can get you to keep focusing on your parents they can keep making money.
