This 35th edition of the Pacific Community’s Women in Fisheries Information Bulletin has 13 original articles on a diversity of topics. Sarah Harper provides a first look at the Illuminating Hidden Harvests project’s findings on gender, while Cristina Ruano-Chamorro summarises a desktop study examining gender transformative approaches used by fisheries and conservation actors who seek to advance gender equality in coral reef-social ecological systems. Carolina Garcia discusses the impacts of COVID-19 on coastal communities in the Pacific using a gender and social inclusion lens. You can also learn about the Community-Based Fisheries Dialogue that was held during the fourth Regional Technical Meeting on Coastal Fisheries and Aquaculture that was held virtually in October 2021.

To help improve gender equity and social inclusion in fisheries and aquaculture, three guides have been developed for managers and practitioners that are worth a read and can be used for training: Gender equity and social inclusion analysis for coastal fisheries and Practical ways to implementing gender-sensitive research in the Pacific by the Wildlife Conservation Society and Talanoa Consulting; Gender equality and social inclusion toolkit by the Fiji Women’s Fund; and Practical ways to implement gender-sensitive fisheries and aquaculture research in the Pacific (this edition). Kate Barclay and co-authors share that a Pacific Handbook for Human Rights, Gender Equity and Social Inclusion in Tuna Industries funded under the Pacific-European Union Marine Partnership (PEUMP), will be launched later in 2022.

This edition includes a number of new lead authors from the Pacific and beyond – Cristina Ruano-Chamorro, Madu Galappaththi, Carolina Garcia, Menka Goundan, Salanieta Kitolelei, Eva Medianti and Saras Sharma.
