Deadline Nears for IMO-WISTA Women in Maritime Survey

The deadline to take part in the 2024 IMO-WISTA Women in Maritime Survey is just two weeks away, closing on 31 December. 

The survey will provide a global snapshot of gender diversity in the maritime sector, highlighting the progress made by Member States and maritime companies since the previous survey of 2021

All maritime companies and organizations - regardless of size, location and specialization - are encouraged to participate, from shipowners and port operators to law firms, insurers and marketers, including small to medium businesses as well as sole traders. 

A broad range of contributions is key to achieving accurate and representative results, so sharing the survey link with networks is strongly encouraged to ensure regional and sub-sector representation. Participants will submit data on workforce demographics (gender, age, leadership roles) and workplace policies impacting gender equality, focusing on 2023 data. 

The results, to be published on 18 May 2025 for the International Day for Women in Maritime, will offer invaluable insights for policymakers, industry leaders, and advocacy groups working to promote equal opportunities for women in maritime careers.
