✨ A memory worth sharing | International Women’s Day at WMU ✨

Rights. Justice. Action. For All Women and Girls.

Looking back at one of the meaningful moments we shared at the World Maritime University in celebration of International Women’s Day, inspired by the United Nations theme “Rights, Justice, and Action for All Women and Girls.”

The seminar brought our community together for an important conversation about gender equality, representation, progress, and the responsibility we all share in building a more inclusive future.

We were honoured to have the event opened by Professor Maximo Q. Mejia Jr., President of WMU, followed by valuable insights from Mariana Noceti of the IMO Women in Maritime Programme, whose contribution reminded us of the importance of advancing women’s participation and leadership across the maritime sector.

One of the most special moments was recognising Sue Jackson for her remarkable 33 years of dedicated service to WMU. Her reflections offered a unique perspective on how gender representation at the University has evolved throughout the years — culminating in the historic achievement of reaching 50% representation of both women and men within the student body.

Another memorable part of the seminar was our “Flip the Script” activity. Men were invited to answer questions traditionally directed at women, creating a simple but powerful opportunity to challenge assumptions, encourage empathy, and remind us that gender equality is not solely a women’s issue — it is a shared responsibility.

As we look back, the message remains as relevant as ever: progress is built not only through words, but through rights that are protected, justice that is practised, and action that follows.

May we continue carrying that spirit beyond one seminar, one celebration, or one day — and into the maritime community and the wider world.

On behalf of the WMU Women’s Association (WMUWA), we remain committed to supporting a future where every woman and every girl has the opportunity to participate, lead, and thrive. 🎗️

🌍 International Day at WMU 2026

International Day at the World Maritime University was a beautiful celebration of what makes WMU truly unique: the world coming together in one place. ⚓

It was a wonderful opportunity to proudly share our cultures, traditions, traditional attire, music, dance and, of course, food. Each country brought a little piece of home to Malmö, giving us the chance not only to celebrate where we come from, but also to learn from and appreciate one another.

The WMU Women’s Association (WMUWA) was proud to be part of this celebration, with our members representing their countries, cultures and the diversity of women within the WMU community. This spirit closely reflects WMUWA’s mission to build an international network of maritime women through learning, collaboration and partnerships.

International Day also carries a special meaning for our Association: WMUWA itself was officially launched during WMU’s International Day celebrations in 2014. More than a decade later, it remains a beautiful occasion for our members to celebrate both their individual identities and the international community that connects us.

Beyond the colours, flavours and beautiful traditional clothing, the day reminded us that diversity is one of WMU’s greatest strengths. We may come from different nations and cultures, but here we learn together, support one another and share the same ocean.

Different countries. Different cultures. Different traditions. One WMU community. ⚓

WMUWA was honoured to be represented and to celebrate the women, cultures and friendships that make our international community so special. 💙✨

🎬⚓ Movie & Karaoke Night with the WMU Women’s Association 🎤✨
🍿Popcorns & Pop Hits 💽 01.08.2026

What a wonderful evening of laughter, music and togetherness!

The movie was deeply touching and beautifully woven around a maritime theme, because, of course, leave it to a group of maritime people to find the sea even on movie night! 🌊😄

It was the perfect opportunity to step away from our busy schedules, relax, sing our hearts out and simply enjoy each other’s company. A joyful and much-needed moment to destress, reconnect and create beautiful memories together.

Good vibes, great voices and even better company! 💙

The sea only cares about competence, resilience and leadership. ⚓️

Yesterday we had yearbook Uniform Day at World Maritime University - headquarters

Maritime uniforms are more than tradition, they symbolize leadership, responsibility and trust at sea.

• 1 stripe - Sub-lieutenant / Ensign / Third Officer
• 2 stripes - Lieutenant/ Second Officer
• 2/1 stripes - Lieutenant Commander
• 3 stripes - Commander / Chief Officer
• 4 stripes - Captain / Master

Every stripe, badge and insignia reflects experience, rank, and commitment to safety and professionalism.

The future of shipping is not only innovative and sustainable, it is also increasingly inclusive.

One of the greatest strengths of studying at World Maritime University is the meeting of different maritime cultures and services in one classroom. Naval officers, coast guard personnel, merchant marine professionals, lawyers, port authorities and policymakers study side by side, building networks that will shape future international cooperation.

The friendships and professional connections created at WMU often become bridges between administrations, industries and nations. In an industry built on global coordination, these relationships matter. Today’s classmates may become tomorrow’s maritime leaders working together on safety, security, sustainability and the future governance of the seas.

At sea, trust saves lives. On shore, cooperation moves the world.
