Building Socially Sustainable Fisheries ft. Gabby Lout
"It's time to rethink what sustainable fisheries really are and to include the social impact as well as environmental." On this episode we talk with PhD candidate Gabby Lout to discuss the intersection between women, human rights, and the environmental issues surrounding the fishing industry. Gabby dives into her groundbreaking social science research in artisanal, small-scale fisheries in Guyana. During the episode, she recalls the human rights abuses that may take place within fisheries, the underrepresentation of women, criticism of 'sustainable seafood' labels, and the ways her and others are working towards solutions.
