Gender equality creates more jobs and increases productivity. In business, research, politics and society, the EU can only reach its full potential if uses all its talent and diversity. Despite significant progress, neither Member States nor economic sectors have reached full gender equality. WINBLUE makes its contribution by optimising the allocation of scarce resources on a set of tailored activities to the achievement of equality between men and women. WINBLUE is a sustainability-oriented multi-actor project aiming to reduce these inequalities.
WINBLUE intends to accelerate the empowerment of women in the blue economy, facilitating their participation in five sectors focused on the conservation and sustainable use of aquatic resources:
- Circular blue bioeconomy and biotechnology
- Aquaculture and fisheries
- Offshore renewable energy
- Sustainable coastal tourism
- Cutting-edge enabling technology for protecting and restoring marine ecosystems
