LAST May 18, the International Day for Women in Maritime was celebrated for the second time. IMO Secretary-General Kitack Lim marked the occasion by underscoring the role that women play in maritime, particularly at this time when the industry is moving toward a decarbonized, digitalized, and more sustainable future.

"The theme for this year highlights the importance of collaboration and networking in achieving gender equality in the maritime sector," said Secretary-General Lim. In doing so, IMO strengthens its commitment to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 5 on gender equality.
