Abstract

Aquaculture has emerged as a significant global industry, with both men and women participating in various roles. Despite of their substantial contribution, women often remain vulnerable to lack of opportunities due to various socio-cultural bars including gender biases, limited financial share, restricted access to resources, and non-involvement in decision-making processes where men hold the dominant part. These challenges hinder their full participation and ability to maximize benefits from the industry. Involving women more actively in aquaculture can enhance sustainable production, economic growth, and food security. Moreover, it can also elevate their social and financial status and attract marginalized women to the workforce, thereby contributing to broader women's empowerment goals. However, achieving this requires not only financial and technical support but also awareness-raising and capacity-building initiatives at the community, national, and global levels. In this paper, as a whole the empowerment of women in aquaculture or fishery has been thoroughly discussed.
