The WIN-BIG Mediterranean Event, organised within the framework of 3 WIN-BIG Sea Basin regional events (Mediterranean, Baltic and Atlantic), aims to strengthen links and synergies between women operating in the Blue Economy sector.

The goal is to strengthen the presence of women in the blue economy by addressing barriers they face, promoting knowledge transfer and enhancing their role as professionals in the BuE by fostering career opportunities and new formats to climb the EU BuE career ladder.

The event will also encourage collaboration with media and policymakers to tackle gender biases and create a welcoming space for everyone to contribute to gender inclusivity in the blue economy. Finally, the event will establish learning labs empowering women in the BuE through targeted capacity-building initiatives to fill skills gaps.

The WIN-BIG Mediterranean Event will take place in Italy, in the city of Rome, and will be held in English.
