S4 E9: Empowering Fisherwomen in Belize's Marine Conservation Efforts
Update: 2024-05-09
Description
WCS supports the government of Belize in the management of two marine reserves in Belize, protected by a dedicated team of local rangers and monitored by experienced local and international scientists.
Beyond preserving marine ecosystems, their focus extends to supporting the livelihoods of fishing communities there.
Ralna Kay Lamb Lewis, WCS Belize's Assistant Director, says it's about ensuring that communities—especially women who have often been underrepresented—have the tools to manage resources, ensuring their own incomes and quality of life.
