The IMRF's official #WomenInSAR Training & Seminar Event took place in August 2022 in Finland, supported by the Finnish Lifeboat Institution (FLBI). The women-only training event was attended by 16 women from across the world, while the seminar had 42 participants, both men and women. The training event gave participants the opportunity to learn practical and real-life operational skills, delivered by experts at the FLBI. It included live exercises on board various types of rescue boats, simulated exercises on improving communication and decision-making skills, and talks on understanding crew welfare, operating safely, and how to be a leader in a SAR unit. Read more about the event.
