Brief Description
The Pacific Islands region is diverse in terms of geography, resources, population, social and customary systems, and colonial contact experience with difference experiences of transitions to social, political, and economic systems.
In the Pacific, over 90 per cent of Pacific Islands Countries and Territories' trade is carried by ship, with countries relying on shipping to supply essential goods and commodities including food, fuel, building materials, vehicles, and amongst others, to provide access to international markets for exports.
Given that there is a regional commitment for gender equality and a Pacific Platform for Actions Gender Equality and Women's Human Rights 2018 – 2030 that forms a regional counterpart to the global commitment for sustainable development through empowering women and young girls, it is important that there is a coordinated approach towards ensuring women employed in the maritime sector are appraised and informed of emerging issues in the sector.
These sentiments are further expressed in the Regional Strategy for Pacific Women In Maritime 2020-2024. This regional strategy is the first in the global maritime community which is reflection of the region's commitment to empower Pacific women in the maritime sector.
