Safer Waves offers support and information to merchant seafarers who have experienced sexual violence or gender discrimination while working at sea.
A merchant ship is a unique environment. Seafarers who experience abuse on board face additional challenges because of this. At Safer Waves we understand those challenges. We strive to make specialised support available to seafarers too.
About Us
Safer Waves is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation. This means we are a non-profit. We are independent and dedicated to responding to sexual violence at sea.
