Abstract

As part of its efforts to promote gender equity to improve fisheries livelihoods, the Regional Fisheries Livelihoods Programme (RFLP) for South and Southeast Asia is developing a field handbook that gives guidance on taking gender into account in all phases of small-scale fisheries development projects. To discuss a draft version of the handbook, a meeting of government and field project staff, researchers as well as representatives of NGOs and international organizations from around the region was organized in the historic Cambodian city of Siem Reap from 2-5 November 2010. Participants looked at best practices for mainstreaming gender in the fisheries sector and also field-tested the tools contained in the handbook.
