Impacts of COVID-19 on the Barbados fishing industry<\/strong><\/p>\n
More than COVID-19 itself, the responses of various Caribbean governments and societies to COVID-19 may be having different impacts upon women and men in fishing industries. Women and men in fisheries may also be responding differently. Using the sustainable livelihoods framework, GIFT is collecting information on the impacts of COVID-19 on fisherfolk and the fishing industry in Barbados. Findings to come soon!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

The paper documents the collective action of women in the Central Fish Processors Association (CFPA) in preparing to make practical interventions for improvements to their working and domestic lives. It is the first research focused on organized women in the Barbados flyingfish fishery, deviating from the typical focus on men in its harvest sector.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Rome, FAO. https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4060\/ca8402en<\/a><\/li>\n
This case study analyses the process of formation of the Central Fish Processors Association (CFPA), its development and the benefits it has provided to its members in terms of their livelihoods and domestic lives, as well as to the flyingfish fishery more generally. Although challenges persist, it illustrates existing and emerging good practices consistent with the principles of the Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries in the Context of Food Security and Poverty Eradication.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
