It may be a little-known fact, but the increased inclusion of women in shipping can make workplaces safer, more efficient and can promote innovation. This animation illustrates how gender diversity brings fresh perspectives, strengthens teamwork, and even helps reduce risky behaviours on the job. Designed as a conversation starter, the video encourages you to reflect, discuss and take concrete actions towards creating inclusive and sustainable maritime workplaces. Commissioned by IMO’s SENSREC Project, this video shows how gender inclusivity benefits both workers and industry.
