- ItemGender in Fisheries: A Future Roadmap(CIFT,COCHIN, 2012) Gopal, Nikita; Ashok, Arathy; Jeyanthi, P.; Gopal, T. K. Srinivasa; Meenakumari, BResearch has proven that women can contribute to the agricultural sector and their contribution in increasing food production can further be enhanced if their access to resources improves. Similar evidence needs to be generated in the fisheries by focussed studies, cutting across all important core and allied sectors. It has also been recognized that for sustainability of fishery resources, production and utilization, the efforts of both men and women are required. The need for generating sex disaggregated data for policy support also has long been advocated. Only hard data can support policy formulation and initiatives and instruments can be tailored to tackle specific issues. Development initiatives based on strong information backed policy framework will only be sustainable in the long term. Rigorous methods and different models of research can be applied for developing indicators and benchmarks. The future road map to gender in fisheries would thus be an approach that is holistic covering all major production and allied sectors, analyzing and putting the issues in proper perspective, generating sufficient and relevant data, clear policy; and targeted development action. Gender studies have to be inter disciplinary (Williams, 2012) with "better conceptual frameworks and strong social science".
