As the fisheries and aquaculture sector discusses major policy changes – forced labour at sea, illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing (IUU), COVID-19 – women’s work is often overlooked, too easily wiped out of public view, receiving very little attention or support. When women’s labour is examined, this attention is rather piecemeal and descriptive. The articles in this issue of Yemaya are drawn from the presentations and discussions at the webinar, ‘Women Work in Fisheries, Too!’  Held on 29 November 2021, the webinar identified areas that respond to the inaccurate and inadequate portrayal of women’s work in Asian fisheries.
