'120m workers around the world depend on capture fisheries’ value chains. Over 90% are in the small-scale fisheries sector: 47% are women: they need capacities, subsidies.' - Editrudith Lukanga, African Women Fish Processors & Traders Network --> buff.ly/2OqFfwf

70% of the Earth’s surface is ocean, & about 60% of that is the #HighSeas . Those seas no longer lie out of reach, and coastal communities especially in developing countries are vulnerable to global problems --> iied.org/action-for-oce…
