Collaborative action is a key element for successfully implementing sustainable fisheries. Still, gender equality, being an essential component in any such actions, is often missing. In fisheries, the contributions of women’s are invisible and mostly remain unrepresented in the statistical analysis. In this paper, we examine the current challenges and opportunities of women in fisheries based on the governmental programs and reports as well as few case studies from various countries. Women now act as cooperative leaders, entrepreneurs and collaborative decision-maker. They have acquired resources and decision-making power that facilitate project developments and leads to more opportunities and sustainability in fisheries. The paper focuses on women’s participation at various levels in fisheries chain from resource management to raising voice on working conditions in industries which support the gender equality. In different ways, the paper offers insights into the knowledge gaps and ways to encourage a greater inclusion of gender into fisheries research in general.
