Abstract:

The 9th Asian Fisheries and Aquaculture Forum held on April 21-25, 2011 at the Shanghai Ocean University was privileged to host the 3rd Global Symposium on Gender in Aquaculture and Fisheries, as a follow up to the women/gender and fisheries Symposia held in the previous triennial Fora. In fact, since the 5th Forum in 1998, the Asian Fisheries Society (AFS) has blazed a proud tradition by providing a venue for professionals and advocates to share their research and action programs, exchange ideas, and network on, initially “women in fisheries,” and into its current format as “gender in fisheries.” Every triennial meeting has since drawn a growing delegation of new researchers and advocates, and the continuing presence of committed persons who regularly participate in the symposia.
