Sustainable Animal and Aquatic Foods Science Program; Penang, Malaysia.https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12348/6895This policy brief reviews the role of gender in the fisheries sector in Ghana and identifies the gaps that limit the full participation and economic empowerment of women, youth and vulnerable populations. Key among these issues are cultural norms and stereotyping that constrain the potential roles of these groups. Addressing these disparities will require a combination of improved and disaggregated data collection across all subsectors, targeted policy reforms, awareness-creation, and direct support for vulnerable actors in the sector.PDFCC-BY-4.0cultural normsgender data gapsBrief
