Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
Dried fish is considered a ‘hidden’ sub-sector within small-scale fisheries, and is particularly important in Asia and Africa. Women make up a significant portion of the workforce in this sub-sector. For example, over 50% of the casual workforce in fish drying yards in Bangladesh are women (Belton et al. 2018). Dried fish production and consumption is organized as a chain of activities from fish harvesting to drying/processing, trading, and distribution referred to as a value chain (Hossain, 2015). Through their employment in value chain activities, women generate significant benefits that support the survival and wellbeing of themselves, their families, and communities (Belton et al. 2018).
