A sudden India-wide lockdown, with just four hours of notice, during the COVID-19 outbreak turned many Indian fishermen’s livelihoods upside down. With large numbers of fishing days lost because of cyclones in 2019, and now the pandemic, fishermen have been looking for support to run their daily lives. They still await their full-fledged fishing days to begin. Starting on March 25th, the lockdown has severely affected the livelihoods of India’s 16 million fishermen. Exporters, traders, women fish vendors, sea weed collectors, vehicles carrying fish, ice breakers – all those in fisheries and allied activities have been impacted.
