As part of its advocacy to promote gender equity onboard vessels, Women in Maritime Philippines (WIMAPHIL) launched their “she to sea” campaign on June 25, 2015 in order to help women who seek to pursue a merchant marine career succeed in their aspirations.
In order to strengthen this campaign, WIMAPHIL has now created the online forum entitled: she to sea - WE "MENTOR". The forum shall allow an exchange of views and information among female deck and engine officers. It shall also be a venue for responding to queries or concerns of cadettes who are either about to embark or who have had experience onboard vessels. Posting of relevant articles that will address the concerns of female seafarers will also be featured.
Registration and participation in the forum as well as the content of discussions shall be monitored by the Forum Administrator.
It is the hope of WIMAPHIL that the she to sea - WE "MENTOR" forum will create a support network that will encourage and assist female global maritime professionals on the pursuit of their profession.
