Fisher-people are particularly susceptible to the adverse effects of climate change due to their vulnerable location, positioned as they are between the impacts from the landward and seaward sides. This precarious situation poses profound challenges, from shrinking coastal spaces and lost working days to dwindling resources, threatening their very lives and livelihoods. Addressing this requires holistic solutions that blend sustainable resource management, community involvement, technology, and tailored policy frameworks. Recognising the urgency, India is prioritising climate adaptation and resilience building for its coastal communities. This side-event on the lines of the International Conclave on Mainstreaming Climate Change into International Fisheries Governance was to understand India’s key initiatives so far and the plans for the way forward to increase the climate resilience of the fisheries sector.
