February and April 2023: #WomenInSAR training events in Morocco and Kenya

The IMRF held two #WomenInSAR training events in early 2023 that enabled women from maritime SAR organisations across Africa to come together and take steps towards greater inclusivity and understand the necessity and benefits of diversity in maritime, including how to make the maritime SAR sector a better place for women to volunteer or work. Delegates also learned from and experienced how other countries and SAR organisations are increasing the representation of women. Empowered with information, they could return to their organisations to implement learnings and best practices. Read more about the event.
