Abstract

Women of the fishing communitiesof Senegal are central to theprocessing and trade of fish and fish products landed by the country’s artisanal fleet. Their roles have been critical to the fishing industry for many decades. Furthermore, the majority of women’s earnings are devoted to providing for their children, as well as contributing to their husband’s work. Nevertheless, until recently, women’s contributions to their families, communities and the fishing industry as a whole have not been acknowledged.
