What does gender mainstreaming mean in maritime practice?
This handbook offers a practical guide for maritime organisations seeking to review their policies, operations, and workplace cultures through a gender and diversity lens. Using maritime-focused cases and examples, it helps organisations identify hidden gaps, challenge assumptions, and move beyond the idea that representation alone equals equality. By translating gender mainstreaming into sector-specific tools and resources, the handbook supports more inclusive, attractive, and sustainable maritime professions for all stakeholders.
