(eds.) Global Symposium on Gender and Fisheries. 7th Asian Fisheries Forum, 1-2 Dec 2004, Penang, Malaysia. pp. 1-6
The symposium provided new views and insights, and the open discussion at the end settled on four principal directions for future action: to investigate in depth the economic contributions of all segments of fishing communities; to put human dimensions into all formal fisheries regulations, policies and plans; to bring genderconsiderations into the mainstream of all fisheries activities, from fishing to the organization of research; and to support these actions by strengthening the basis of gender and fisheries research.
