Abstract

The context of massive aquatic ecosystem degradation, engendered largely by the fisheries sector with associated socioeconomic challenges, and mixed signals from aquaculture, which shows high growth rates, but has some unsustainable segments, raises the question of how women in fisheries and aquaculture can contribute to the transition towards sustainability through restoration of lost productivity. Empirical evidence of women’s roles in all continents shows patterns of unrecognized, unpaid labour that clouds the economic signals of increasing resource rarefaction.
