The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have hit the shores. 

Fishing communities – already living in precarious conditions with little to no access to social services and without safety nets – face exacerbated hunger, job insecurity, and uncertainty of survival as the world grapples with the continuously unfolding crises in public health, economy, and food security. How do we protect and support small-scale fishers, harvesters, and fish workers amid these dire circumstances?
