Abstract

This issue of the Women in Fisheries Bulletin looks at women’s fishing participation in communities, and fisheries management and development issues in general. One of the biggest challenges in the region is how to reach a balance between development and management. Management means the closing-off of fishing grounds and the implementation of user and use controls on fisheries areas or certain species. The challenge for management practitioners is how to ensure that people manage their resources and at the same time have access to those resources to maintain their social and economic livelihoods, because for some it may be the only option available.
