| Summary, etc. | Fishing industry in Sri Lanka has been in existence from time <br/>immemmorial. The mechanization of the fishing industry in early <br/>1960’s followed by other development programmes brought many <br/>changes to this industry. However some of the traditional crafts <br/>and gear are still in use in some areas. Traditionally, women <br/>were involved either directly or indirectly in this industry <br/>throughout the history. Although some of the traditional <br/>activities of women in fishing or related industries have been <br/>replaced by more modern techniques the involvement of women <br/>remain almost unaltered due to. the opportunities created by such <br/>developments compensating for the loss of opportunities in <br/>traditional fishing caused by such developments.<br/>The socio-economic aspect . of women in Sri Lanka is as in all <br/>south east Asian Countries. This is more for women belonging to <br/>the lower income groups where they are more or less a neglected <br/>sector of the population. In observing the condition in the <br/>fishing industry this situation in evident mainly due to the<br/>1<br/>difficult and dangerous situations encountered by their spouses <br/>or the supporting males in the family. Fisherman live in <br/>communities close to the sea.. They earn their >lively hood by <br/>fishing or carrying out other related work relevant to this <br/>industry. Women play a. major role in these communities, where <br/>they support the males in their family in fishing, traditional <br/>processing and even marketing. Most of these fisher families are <br/>controlled by a middleman who earn a much larger sum than the <br/>fisherman who actually harvest the fish.This situation results in <br/>the actual fisherman receiving only a meagre sum, but is always <br/>dependent on the middleman who funds his fishing & living <br/>expenses ,(etc.). Thus this situation creates a necessity for <br/>women to support the males in these activities. |
