Empowering women from LDCs, LLDCs and SIDS in deep-sea research Report was commissioned as part of the activities under the Women in Deep-Sea Research (WIDSR) project implemented by the International Seabed Authority (ISA) in partnership with the United Nations Office of the High Representative for the Least Developed Countries, Landlocked Developing Countries and Small Island Developing States (UN-OHRLLS) and more than twenty governments, international and regional organizations, research institutions, private sector entities, and non-governmental organizations. 

This report summarizes the key findings of a gender mapping exercise of the deep-sea research field and related disciplines and activities in LDCs, LLDCs and SIDS. Additionally, it summarizes the key findings of an analysis conducted to identify the critical barriers faced by women scientists from LDCs, LLDCs and SIDS in participating and accessing leadership positions in this field of work.
