Esta guía resume la investigación sobre la intersección entre el género y la pesca de captura, explorando las formas en que la pesca ofrece importantes puntos de entrada para mejorar la igualdad de género y el empoderamiento económico de las mujeres, al tiempo que contribuye a intervenciones más eficaces y resultados más sostenibles.
This guide provides an overview of the unique roles and contributions women make in the wild-caught fisheries sector.
Across the globe, women are heavily involved in the environmental sector, including in agriculture, fisheries, forestry, and in adapting to and mitigating climate change. However, women's participation and representation in decision-making processes that pertain to their and their families' environmental well-being are often restricted. In 2014, Conservation International collaborated with IUCN's Global Gender Office (GGO) to produce case studies about the state of women in environmental decision making in three countries: Ecuador, Liberia, and the Philippines.
