The Asian Fisheries Society support for professional activities in the field of women and gender in aquaculture and fisheries began at least in 1990 when the Asian Fisheries Society Indian Branch held the Women in Fisheries in India Workshop. Later, every 3 years since 1998, the Asian Fisheries Society and its partners have supported an expert Symposium on women/gender in fisheries and aquaculture. Much of the material from these Symposia is electronically available. The following is a quick guide to the documents.
