REDO Lookout: Promoting Gender Equality and Inclusion in the Shipping Industry
REDO Lookout aims to foster gender equality and inclusion within the shipping industry through collaboration, awareness-raising, and knowledge-sharing initiatives from and within the Nordic region, with a specific focus on the shipping industry. By raising awareness, and establishing a network for ongoing advocacy, we seek to create lasting impact and equal opportunities for all genders in the maritime sector.
By addressing systemic barriers and fostering a more inclusive workplace culture through collaborative efforts with industry stakeholders in the region, the project aims to drive meaningful change, creating a more diverse and gender-balanced workforce that thrives on inclusiveness and fairness.
Expected outcomes are: increased awareness and understanding of gender equality issues among stakeholders within the Nordic shipping industry. Through key activities such as conferences, podcast series and the creation of a network, the project aims to promote gender equality in the Nordic region.
