Abstract

The Bay of Maputo is an example of how modern urban life in Mozambique has influenced the local artisanal fisheries communities and has contributed to an increasing recognition of the role women play in the local economy. Due to the proximity of city markets and a growing demand for fish products, fisheries is good business for many local men and women.
