New president for the Nautical Institute
Newly elected president of the Nautical Institute Jillian Carson-Jackson has vowed to help the Institute and wider maritime community meet three important challenges –diversity and inclusion, branch engagement and managing the impact of technology.
Speaking at the Nautical Institute’s annual general meeting, she made the following pledge on behalf of her organisation: “There has been a concerted effort over the past years to raise visibility of not just women, but the overall role of diversity and inclusion in maritime. The Institute, as a global body for maritime professionals, intends to show its commitment to encourage, support and celebrate a diverse and inclusive maritime industry.” (mw)
