Promoting the Women’s Committee within the MEDPorts Association is a
key initiative for several reasons that transcend both the personal and
strategic development of women and Mediterranean ports.
Presentation
The Women’s Committee is more than just a tool to support women; it is a strategic opportunity for Mediterranean ports to become more innovative, sustainable, and competitive. This committee will not only elevate female talent but will also strengthen connections between ports and contribute to a more inclusive vision of the future of the port sector. With these ideas, the Women’s Committee will have an immediate impact on its participants and can transform the culture of the Mediterranean port sector in the long term.
