Celebrating Women’s Empowerment in Maritime Security !
Yesterday, SEACOP celebrated Women in Maritime Security Day in Latin America through a very successful webinar. This special event aimed to recognise and celebrate the empowerment and integration of women in the maritime security sector.
Women from partner countries of SEACOP, including Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, Martinique the National Spanish Police, came together to celebrate their peers’ efforts.
Representatives from our partner project Maritime Analysis and Operations Centre (Narcotics) – MAOC (N) were also in attendance.
Participants praised SEACOP’s unwavering efforts in promoting gender mainstreaming across all positions related to combating illicit maritime trafficking.
The webinar showcased inspiring stories of women breaking barriers and making significant contributions to maritime security. Discussions emphasised the vital role #women play in building safer and more inclusive maritime environments.
🤝 At SEACOP, we firmly believe that #genderequality is not just a goal, but a necessity in the fight against illicit maritime activities. By empowering and integrating women into the maritime security sector, we unlock a wealth of diverse perspectives, talents, and expertise that strengthens our collective efforts.
🌟 We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the women who shared their experiences and perspectives during the webinar. Your dedication and commitment are paving the way for a more inclusive and effective approach to #maritimesecurity.
💡 Let’s continue to champion #gender equality and empower women in maritime security. Together, we can create a future where everyone, regardless of gender, contributes to the safety and integrity of our seas.
