SeaGirls

The SeaGirls project gave girls in Iceland disposable film cameras for the summer to understand their relationships and perspectives of the ocean. This project was a collaboration between the University Centre of the Westfjords and Vestfjörður Regional Museum as part of the growing international dialogue on gender and the ocean. Gender equality in ocean industries is an important conversation to start at a young age, and many international development plans highlight the importance of youth and female involvement in ocean sustainability. SeaGirls is an ongoing project that will help in the development of future research and community activities that help promote conversations surrounding gender equality in the ocean industries.
