Empowering women in the blue economy
The WINBLUE project is working with blue economy stakeholders to address the sector’s gender equality challenges. Together, this community is designing and implementing gender equality plan models that address common gender biases and the unconscious rules that can prevent women from taking up decision‑making positions. This work is supported by a coaching programme geared towards preparing women for leadership roles. All the project’s work can be easily adopted by companies and organisations by replicating the good practices for gender equality identified in five blue economy sectors. These will help make the blue economy more inclusive.
