Africa-Press – Seychelles. <\/strong><\/span>\u201cIt takes a certain grace, strength, intelligence, and fearlessness for a woman to step up in a male dominated industry \u2013 maritime being one of those industries.<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cThe maritime world is changing and is becoming an industry for everyone, both men and women. And of course as with all industries, there is still a lot of work to do to empower women and continue the journey to equality. The IMO has done a lot of work since 1998 to educate more women and provide opportunities into the maritime industry, and now we also need to do our part to make a bigger impact in our home country, the Seychelles.<\/p>\n

\u201cThough we don\u2019t always put much thought into it, our maritime industry was built not only by strong men but by many strong women also, as a result we all need to come together to continue to uplift our women and keep breaking down walls and defying stereotypes against women.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn this note, let me extend my sincerest congratulations to all you dedicated women on behalf of the Ministry of Transport. May you continue to grow and thrive as you pave the way for many others along the way. Thank you for all that you do and all that you continue to do for the maritime industry and for your country.\u201d<\/p>\n
