Isla Gale wanted to be a skipper from the age of 10 and she is very safety conscious.

ICS applauds the Netherlands for becoming the first European country to begin vaccinating all #seafarers on Dutch owned or flagged vessels regardless of nationality from mid-June. 👏 We hope more countries will follow suit #vaccinations#VaccinateOurSeafarers

Women make up just 7.5% of the seafarer workforce. On International Women's Day we asked them to share their experiences of working at sea and how COVID-19 has affected them and their crew. #womeninmaritime#IWD2021#COVID19
On #InternationalWomensDay IMO is launching the online campaign #MyMaritimeMentor to recognize the work of an inspiring mentor in the maritime industry. Share their photo or use our image and let them know how you value their support. #IWD2021 https://t.co/yirUBi66Ml

Stuck for 3 days, worried about not being home at Xmas & supply chains at risk #lorrydrivers get more attention than #seafarers who endure the same for many months. Land based employment has much greater visibility than those similarly disadvantaged but invisible out at sea😦
We've just published our Diversity Tracker - With currently only 7.5% of female seafarers, #shipping companies will benefit from accessing a wider pool of talent and experience.
