Hello Shipping Podcast lovers, the show is available on all podcast platforms. This is where we talk about the coolest industry on the planet and help raise the maritime industry's profile.  

The shipping industry is the backbone of international trade, contributing to globalisation and development, yet we are the invisible industry. The people within the industry make the world go around; they are maritime professionals – strong characters with an interesting background. I meet them, and we talk about the future of the shipping industry and what's happening right now.

In cyberspace since 2015.

In episode 115 you meet Helen Buni, who works at the Technical Cooperation Division at IMO and is the focal point for the programme Women in Maritime, the IMO programme on diversity. 

Why did the International Maritime Organisation decide on "Empowering Women in the Maritime Industry" for 2019? And what will happen next year when the theme is something else? Will IMO still be working with the gender issue? 

Listen to Helen Buni speaking about how she sees the future and what initiatives that IMO is supporting and which stakeholders that need to collaborate to move things forward. 

Here is the link to the new film released by IMO on Women in Maritime, Turning the Tide.
