| 摘要： | The Crescent River Port Pilots Association (Crescent) and the New Orleans-Baton Rouge Steamship Pilots Association (NOBRA), the two associations charged with piloting ships on the Lower Mississippi River between Head of Passes and Baton Rouge, La., have launched an initiative called Open Waters Louisiana "to promote diversity, equity and inclusion in the maritime industry." So far this year, Open Waters Louisiana has partnered with the maritime industry, including Jackson Offshore Operators, Edison Chouest Offshore, Port Ship Service, Cooper/T. Smith Mooring, Louisiana CAT, Laborde Products and Central Boat Rentals, to reach Louisiana junior high and high school students through educational roadshows, stakeholder partnerships and internships. Through the roadshows alone, Crescent and NOBRA pilots have spoken to close to 1,300 students from McKinley High School in Baton Rouge, Neville and Woodlawn high schools in Shreveport, Franklin Junior High in Franklin and the New Orleans Military & Maritime Academy in Algiers. In the roadshows, students have had the chance to learn more about Louisiana's maritime industry and engage in one-on-one conversations with pilots about career paths open to them. |
