Abstract

On 25 November 2007, history was created in Chile when CONAPACH—the Chilean National Confederation of Artisanal Fishermen—elected their first woman President. CONAPACH represents about 60,000 Chilean artisanal fishermen, a sector dominated by men and notorious for its machismo. Zoila Bustamente, the new President of CONAPACH, is a woman fishworker from Chile’s southern Los Lagos Region.
