The Royal Institution of Naval Architects (RINA) and Maritime Research Institute Netherlands (MARIN) are organising the Human Factors 2024 Conference, which will be held on 8th-9th October 2024 in Wageningen, The Netherlands.

The conference will provide an opportunity for human factors experts, naval architects, bridge officers and others to get together and discuss the recent developments. It will focus on lessons learned from interventions and applied research that were successful, or even more interesting, unexpected or bad results. For example, implementation of new automation on board that worked out differently or behavioral interventions that had unexpected effects. It is all about applied research that provides learned lessons for future Human Factor research, specifically for the Maritime domain.

As part of the conference, the delegates will have a unique opportunity to visit the new Seven Oceans Simulation centre of MARIN.
