The Caribbean Islands: Celebrating Women in Caribbean Fisheries

The Caribbean Network of Fisherfolk Organisations works on the implementation of the SSF Guidelines with a special focus on gender

The Caribbean Network of Fisherfolk Organisations (CNFO) is a regional network of national and local level fisherfolk organisations and individual fisherfolk leaders. It operates throughout the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) comprising mainly the English-speaking countries and territories. In 2006, the CNFO was informally established through fisherfolk capacity building and strategic planning, assisted by regional inter-governmental (Caribbean Regional Fisheries Mechanism Secretariat), non-governmental (Caribbean Natural Resources Institute) and academic (University of the West Indies Centre for Resource Management and Environmental Studies) collaborating partners. In 2016, CNFO was legally established as a not-for-profit company.
