摘要

多年来,水产养殖一直被错误地视为男性占主导地位的部门,给妇女提供的机会不足,部分原因是资本投资要求高和/或与企业有关的技术。妇女在水产养殖价值链的所有领域工作,但她们的机会没有跟上水产养殖的增长。因此,他们在穷人中占很大一部分,限制了他们的创收活动和资产建设潜力。可以追踪肯尼亚妇女参与水产养殖活动情况的按性别分列的统计数据很少。因此,女性的存在、影响和利益是无形的。所有水产养殖劳动实践都应遵循以性别平等和增强所有妇女和女童权能为重点的可持续发展目标5。为此目的,必须将性别平等纳入水产养殖规划、发展、监测和评价的主流。这将需要部门领导人、倡导者和性别问题倡导者在新的执行技术手段的支持下作出协调一致的政治努力。该研究利用将性别视角纳入每一种现象,使性别可见,质疑过程、机会和标准是否、如何以及为什么系统性地不同于女性和男性,而不仅仅是女性。最后,它提出了可以加强妇女参与的章节,以提高肯尼亚水产养殖生产的重要性。

The role of women in freshwater aquaculture development in Kenya
For many years, aquaculture has been erroneously viewed as a male-dominated sector, offering women inadequate opportunities partly due to the high capital investment requirement and or the technologies linked to the venture. Women work in all areas of the aquaculture value chain but their opportunities have not kept pace with aquaculture growth. Hence, they form a larger component of the poor, limiting their income-generating activities and asset building potential. Gender disaggregated statistics that could track women's engagement in aquaculture activities in Kenya are scanty. Hence, women's presence, influence and interests are invisible. All aquaculture labour practices should embrace the Sustainable Development Goals 5 that focus on gender equality and empowerment of all women and girls. To that end, gender equality must be mainstreamed into aquaculture planning, development, monitoring and evaluation. This will require concerted political efforts by sector leaders, advocates and gender champions, supported by new technical instruments for implementation. The study leverages on incorporating gender lens and making gender visible in every phenomenon, questioning if, how and why processes, opportunities and standards differ systematically for women and men and not solely for women. Finally, it proposes sections where women's engagements can be strengthened to increase the importance of aquaculture production in Kenya.
