Women’s International Shipping & Trading Association (WISTA) - Arabia UAE was established by Jasamin Fichte in 2010 and has managed to rapidly increase its members to more than 45 active members. The UAE chapter’s mission is to raise awareness of the Middle East shipping industry amongst professional women inside the country and abroad, to encourage more to join the maritime & trading sector and to build a network platform for women within mainly male dominated industries. WISTA UAE is meeting on a bi-monthly base and more importantly organizes regularly seminars and training programs to educate young women and highlight the many opportunities that exist in the shipping industry for women. Our events are usually not only informative but also in locations not accessible for the public, i.e. ports, vessels, engine rooms and even dry docks. As the founder and president of the local branch of WISTA, Jasamin Fichte challenges the barriers that women face in this male-dominated industry and regularly train young female lawyers and encourage women to join the shipping/maritime sector.
