On International Women in Maritime Day, the IMO emphasizes the need for gender equality and increases in women's representation in the maritime workforce.
On International Women in Maritime Day, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) emphasizes the crucial role of women in ensuring maritime safety and highlights the need for gender equality in the industry. Women currently make up only 29% of the maritime workforce and 20% of national maritime authorities, while women represent less than 2% of seafarers globally. The IMO calls for more investment in women's education and professional development to empower them, drive innovation, and foster sustainability in the maritime sector.
