<Work in Progress>
This page provides links to women/gender groups, societies, organizations, and other collectives devoted (formally or informally) to promoting or highlighting women/gender roles, relationships and issue in aquaculture, fisheries, post harvest, and aquatic conservation. We use the term “network” to include the different types of organizations. Those listed are of various types. Some are societies mainly targeted at research and education, others are advocacy and professional groups representing and supporting people working in the sector.
