  • Designing gender-inclusive data systems in small-scale fisheries

    Open Access•Sarah J Harper, Meryl J Williams et al.•ARTICLE•AMBIO•2026•References: 41

    Gender equality is a ubiquitous national goal, yet sectoral gender data gaps to support this goal persist. These gaps are both structural and sexist, concealing women's contributions and impeding actions that would strengthen livelihoods and economic development, food security, and environmental sustainability. The small-scale fisheries sector offers a cogent example of this phenomenon. Building on lessons from the Illuminating Hidden Harvests in…

  • Adaptation Strategies of Small‐Scale Marine Fisheries in Response to Climate Change, Resource Changes, and Sudden Systemic Shocks

  • Women fish vendors in Kerala, India

    K Rejula, S Ashaletha et al.•ARTICLE•Gender Technology and Development•2023•Cited by: 1•References: 5

    Women are predominantly engaged in postharvest fisheries and comprise about 75% of those engaged in fish marketing in India. The roles performed by fisherwomen are often not recognized. With the recent penetration of technology, mechanization, and capital orientation in fishing and fish vending, the business atmosphere has further turned against the interests of women. Women have to face competition in accessing fish, availing a prospective selli…

  • Traditional access rights and methods of fishing in inland water bodies

    Nikita Gopal, Rakesh M Raghavan et al.•ARTICLE•Gender Technology and Development•2022•Cited by: 2•References: 4

    Gender divisions are often stereotypical in fisheries, and only recently has their role in wild fish capture begun to see light, with evidence indicating that fish harvest by women can be substantial, especially in small-scale fisheries. The state of Kerala on the southwest coast of India is one of the major fish-producing states in the country. However, what is not well recognized is that women are extensively involved in fishing, especially in …
