Physical and Mental Wellness at Sea - Addressing gender-specific health challenges, coping mechanisms for stress and isolation, and the importance of safe spaces and mental health support

Policy, Training, and Retention - Discussing gender sensitivity in maritime training, career development pathways, and strategies to improve long-term retention of women seafarers

Future Outlook - Exploring changing perceptions, the evolving role of men as allies, technological advancements' impact on gender roles, and the vision for a balanced, diverse maritime workforce

Speakers include four prominent voices in maritime wellbeing and gender equality including Anna W. Karunatilleke, Dr. Asif, Ms. Achala Vithanage, and Fatma Nur Yalcinkaya.
