Discussion and networking

Discussion will be around how the maritime industry can shape the future of the maritime workforce by creating safe and inclusive workplaces, followed by breakout discussions and networking. The focus for discussions will be strategies and case studies relating to practical approaches to creating workplaces that are gender inclusive.  

Beyond physical safety considerations, our discussions will also explore avenues for creating psychologically safe workplaces.  

Build valuable relationships and exchange ideas to further promote diversity and inclusivity within our industry by connecting with peers, mentors, and leaders in the maritime industry during the networking session.
