Abstract

At the end of 2002 the European Union (EU) will have a new ‘Common Fisheries Policy’ (CFP). In the Green Paper on the future of the common fisheries policy that prepares for this reform, the European Commission has noted that: “the substantial role played by women in the fisheries sector should be recognized and enhanced”. But what does this mean in a context where European fisheries are in crisis and where communities, men and women, are having to face up to ever more serious difficulties in their daily lives?
