Abstract

Reflecting on the recently concluded 3rd Global Symposium on Gender in Aquaculture and Fisheries (GAF3) (see article above), what perhaps was most signifi cant about the symposium was the analytical shift repeatedly being made from ‘women in fi sheries’ to ‘gender in fi sheries’. A large number of presentations described the sexual and inter-generational division of labour within fi shing communities. Often, however, these presentations were non-analytical. Many of the speakers are associated with past work related to women in fisheries.
