    Get PDF
    Blue Swimming Crab (BSC) is one of the most economically important aquatic species for Cambodian fishers, and crab fisheries has been their major source of income. Besides, BSC is also known as a favorite food for travelers visiting the coastal areas as well as in other parts of Cambodia. There had been significant reductions in BSC catch in Cambodian waters since 2000 as reported by Chap et al. (2012) and Tong (2013). Crane and Vandy (2015) also stated that the number and size of BSC captured from the waters of Cambodia had been decreasing. It has therefore become necessary to conserve and manage such resources for sustainable utilization by the fishers. This project was carried out with the objectives of enhancing the natural stock of blue swimming crab and ensuring the livelihoods for fishers dependent on blue swimming crab fisherie

    Since USAID Oceans began in May 2015, the program has achieved national, regional, and international impact in designing and implementing eCDT technologies; strengthening human and institutional capacity to conserve marine biodiversity through sustainable fisheries management plans; and enhancing public-private partnerships to combat IUU fishing and seafood fraud. USAID Oceans key accomplishments as of May 2020 include: - Supporting the development of 7 innovative eCDT technologies and eCDT systems that have tracked more than 4 million pounds of legal and sustainable seafood products within the seafood supply chain, representing a value of approximately US20million.DevelopingandimplementingsustainablefisheriesmanagementplanstosupporteCDTimplementation,includingthefirstknownsubregionalsustainablefisheriesmanagementplan.Theseplansprotectmarinehabitatstotalinganareaover1.5timesthesizeoftheUnitedStates(>100millionhectares),helpcountriesmanagetransboundaryfishstocks,andprotectseascapesfromillegalfishingpractices.Supportingthedevelopmentof5legalinstrumentstopromotegenderequityandwomensempowermentinfisheriesmanagement.Theseinstrumentsmakeiteasierforwomentoregisterasfishers,incorporategenderconsiderationsinexistingfisheriespolicies,andbuildcapacitiesofpartnerorganizationstoimplementorganizationalgenderpolicies.LeveragingoverUS20 million. - Developing and implementing sustainable fisheries management plans to support eCDT implementation, including the first known sub-regional sustainable fisheries management plan. These plans protect marine habitats totaling an area over 1.5 times the size of the United States (> 100 million hectares), help countries manage transboundary fish stocks, and protect seascapes from illegal fishing practices. - Supporting the development of 5 legal instruments to promote gender equity and women’s empowerment in fisheries management. These instruments make it easier for women to register as fishers, incorporate gender considerations in existing fisheries policies, and build capacities of partner organizations to implement organizational gender policies. - Leveraging over US4 million by engaging with public and private sector partners, including U.S.-based seafood suppliers such as Anova Food, LLC. and Bumble Bee Seafood. - Training over 1,800 women and men from governmental and non-governmental stakeholder groups throughout Southeast Asia to use strategic tools in support of project objectives

    The Hidden Half, Part II – Gender Research in Southeast Asia’s Fisheries (English)

    No full text
    Fishing is traditionally thought of a man’s profession, but in Southeast Asia women make up more than 50% of the fisheries supply chain. Despite their important role, women’s work often goes unseen. This video provides an introduction to conducting gender-specific research in Southeast Asia’s fisheries. While the video features communities and workplaces in Southern Mindanao, Philippines, it represents many of the gender roles and challenges women experience throughout the region and research tools and techniques that can apply throughout the region. Learn more about women’s roles in Southeast Asia’s fisheries in “The Hidden Half, Part I – Women’s role in Southeast Asia’s fisheries.
