The Participation of Gambian Women in the Fishing Industry is a comprehensive study that examines women's critical role and challenges in The Gambia's fishing industry. It provides an in-depth analysis of women's participation, contributions, and barriers they face, alongside recommendations for their empowerment and inclusion. The fishing industry is vital in The Gambia, providing employment, livelihoods, and food security. While traditionally dominated by men, women play indispensable roles in processing, marketing, and retail. Despite significant contributions, women face numerous challenges that limit their economic empowerment and participation. Key findings highlight traditional gender roles and societal norms that restrict women's access to resources and decision-making. Women often have limited access to fishing gear and boats, hindering their engagement in fishing activities. Despite these challenges, Gambian women have shown remarkable resilience. Structural and institutional barriers, such as limited access to financial resources, technology, and training, further marginalize women.
