𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝗛𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁: Seafarers Are Excluded

Why are women still excluded from key roles at sea? We asked seafarers and their responses reveal the real barriers.

These aren’t just perceptions, they’re persistent blockers to progress. If we want a truly inclusive maritime industry, we must challenge the narratives that hold women back.

It also offers a hopeful glimpse into emerging practices that can shift the tides — mentorship, inclusive policies, and awareness initiatives."
– Hon. Dr. Harini Amarasuriya, Prime Minister of Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka’s head of government has publicly and powerfully endorsed a roadmap for gender equality in the maritime sector. This is a pivotal moment for the industry.

Let’s not miss this tide of change.
