Sobre nós
WIN-BIG project has a mission to bridge the knowledge gap on the role of women in the Blue Economy (BuE) sectors across all 6 EU sea basins. Our goal is to provide accurate data on the gender status and women's roles in BuE and identify the skills gaps that prevent women from entering or advancing in the blue career ladder. We will leverage specific capacity building programs focusing on three emergent sectors: blue bioeconomy, blue sports & sustainable tourism, and marine renewable energies & robotics. Through our innovative learning labs, acceleration program, mentorship network, and job events, we aim to promote women's participation in BuE and disseminate female role models in the industry. Our efforts will culminate in a Roadmap for Capacity Building for Women in EU BuE that will promote actions and best practices learned that can be transferred across countries and regions, further developing women's roles in BuE in the EU. We have an impressive consortium of 14 partners from 9 countries, a top-notch advisory board, and a stakeholder's network beyond EU borders, increasing our relevance, reach capacity, and promoting our project's legacy and sustainability.

Gender-based violence is a global crisis affecting #women across all sectors and regions. It hinders progress, silences voices, and restricts opportunities for countless women and girls worldwide. Addressing GBV is essential to ensuring women can pursue and thrive in careers without fear of harassment or discrimination. Today marks the start of the #16DaysOfActivism campaign, a time to unite against #GBV and demand systemic change. Let’s amplify voices, support survivors, and commit to fostering safe and inclusive workplaces everywhere. 💬 How can we make our workplaces safer for women? Share your thoughts below and join us in this vital conversation. #OrangeTheWorld #EndGBV #16DaysOfActivism
Every woman deserves to feel safe. Every girl deserves to dream freely. Let’s stand together to build a future without fear, injustice, or violence. We are committed to making this vision a reality. This year, our first ever EU legislation on combating violence against women and domestic violence entered into force. It criminalises: 🛑physical violence 🛑psychological 🛑economic 🛑and sexual violence against women across the EU, both offline and online. For the first time ever, we are criminalising gender-based cyber violence, such as non-consensual sharing of intimate images, including deepfakes. We will continue to do everything possible to protect victims and punish offenders. #UnionOfEquality #OrangeTheWorld #SpotTheViolence

🌊What if we told you that the #fishing industry’s greatest secret isn’t found in the depths of the ocean but on the shores? For centuries, #women have been its hidden champions. Today, they make up about 27% of all jobs in fisheries, aquaculture, and processing. Historically, women mended nets, gutted fish, and even carried their husbands to boats on their backs to ensure they could set sail in dry clothes. These are the women who paved the way for generations to come. Today, on #WorldFisheriesDay, join us in celebrating their contribution to this sector! Now, people like Alida Elena continue this legacy. “Working at sea infatuates you,” she says, sharing her excitement for each day on the water. So, next time you enjoy seafood, remember that fisheries are more than just a source of your favorite dish. They are the lifeblood of coastal communities, supporting 300,000 jobs and propelling the EU to the forefront of sustainable ocean management #blueeconomy #womeninblue #womeninmaritime #inclusivity #genderequality #capacitybuilding #unionofequality #EMFAF

💡 Must read on the role of women in the African #BlueEconomy "Gender inclusivity is a critical component of sustainable economic development and climate action, particularly in coastal communities. Women's in-depth knowledge of local ecosystems uniquely positions them to drive innovative solutions within the Blue Economy. With adequate support and resources, the potential for women-led innovation and entrepreneurship is truly revolutionary." ⤵️⤵️⤵️
In Mozambique, women make up 80% of the seaweed industry. Supporting women and promoting gender equality is not just about fairness—it's about harnessing the full potential of Africa's coastal communities and marine resources. Read the full article here:

Today is #EUEqualPayDay- a powerful reminder of the ongoing need to tackle gender disparities in earnings. Women in the EU still earn 12.7% less per hour, and the broader gender overall earnings gap is a staggering 36.2% 📉- reflecting deeper inequalities in pay, working hours, and employment rates. 💼 Let’s use this day to champion fairness, equity, and action. Together, we can close these gaps and build a future where equal work means equal pay for everyone, in all their diversity!
