2024 International Day for Women in Maritime – Shaping the Future of Maritime Safety
The Abuja Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) is proud to celebrate the 2024 International Day for Women in Maritime, focusing on the theme “Shaping the Future of Maritime Safety.” This year’s celebration highlights the indispensable role of women in ensuring maritime safety across the globe and the progressive shift towards gender equality in the maritime industry.
Women have always been integral to the maritime sector, but their contributions are now more visible and celebrated than ever before. From serving as deck officers and engineers to leading industry initiatives and shaping policy, women are making significant strides in maritime safety. Their expertise, dedication, and leadership are crucial in maintaining and enhancing the safety standards that protect our seas and those who work on them.
The Abuja MoU recognizes the importance of this day in not only celebrating the achievements of women in maritime but also in encouraging further progress towards a more inclusive and diverse industry. By championing gender equality, we can foster an environment where everyone has the opportunity to contribute to maritime safety and innovation.
We invite you to join us in honoring the women who are making waves in the maritime sector. Let’s celebrate their accomplishments and work together to ensure a safer, more equitable future for maritime.
