Abstract

Six wives of fishermen from VinVis, the Women in Fisheries Network of the Netherlands, attended the EU conference on women’s roles in fisheries. It was their first time to participate in an event like this and they were rather overwhelmed by the formal and massive character of the conference. But all of them said that it had been a very important experience for them. They found it very interesting and encouraging to hear about the experiences of other fisherwomen in Europe and about the importance of woman’s roles in fisheries everywhere.
