This edition of the Gendered Voices Newsletter highlights the opportunities and challenges faced by women in ocean-based activities, and more precisely in the Blue Economy sectors of Mauritius and Seychelles, respectively. Through the stories of Ms. Dainise Quatre, marine officer; Ms. Doline Rose, oyster farmer; Ms. Andrese Flore, fisher, and Ms. Priteema Laverdure, coral planter, interesting insights are provided on the ways in which some women are earning a living from the sea. This edition also highlights the contributions of women to building resilience and adaptation measures to climate change, and addresses gender-related issues that remain to be tackled in ocean-related sectors.
