  • WISTA Denmark was re-established in 2022 as a national branch of WISTA International. WISTA Denmark has an ambition to develop an inclusive network across the maritime value chain representing women on-shore and off-shore as well as making full use of the entire WISTA international network. The benefits of WISTA include an international network, creating business relationships, facilitating members’ professional development, sharing knowledge, and friendship. With over 6,000 members within maritime logistics and trade, across 62 National WISTA Organisations (NWAs), WISTA International provides further a resource and potential partnering option to Blue Denmark’s inclusion and diversity agenda. WISTA Denmark is focusing on 3 main pillars:
    • International network
      • Facilitating the exchange of contacts, information and experiences amongst members across the globe
      • Participate and contribute to the WISTA International committees and it’s work with international organizations (e.g. IMO, UNCTAD, Maritime SheEO, Women in Transport – EU Platform for Change)
      • Ensure Danish representation in the International maritime community and raise the profile and voice of women in the Danish maritime sector on an international level
