正文(英文) | June 17, 2021 Ottawa, Ontario - Hydrography is the science of surveying and charting waters. It’s a form of science that protects our lives, property and the environment. It informs the nautical charts that help mariners navigate safely, boosts global economic prosperity by enabling the movement of goods, and helps us map the sea’s hidden features. June 21st marks World Hydrography Day – a day to celebrate hydrography and the ways it enriches our lives. Today, the Government of Canada is proud to help grow the field of hydrography by investing in inclusion and gender balance. The Minister of Fisheries, Oceans and the Canadian Coast Guard, the Honourable Bernadette Jordan, announced $300,000 (over three years) to the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) to empower women in hydrography. As part of Canada’s actions to support the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (Ocean Decade), this project will enable more women to participate equitably in the field of hydrography and to assume more leadership roles within the international hydrographic community. For 100 years, IHO has been a global authority for advancing maritime safety and efficiency to support the protection and sustainable use of the marine environment. Through this funding, Canada is supporting women - both at home and abroad - to fully participate in ocean-related sciences like hydrography. This investment will also help support efforts to reverse the cycle of decline in ocean health and create improved conditions for sustainable development to fuel a sustainable global blue economy.
