| dc.description | In 2019, the world was struck by the COVID-19 pandemic, which affected all sectors, including the livelihoods of rural communities. In Liberia, as in many countries, the government imposed restrictions and other public health measures to contain the spread of the virus. These measures rendered women vulnerable to shocks, thus creating the need for livelihood improvement at different levels. Other factors continually encroached on their livelihoods sustainability, particularly threats to marine resource losses, including the growing effects of illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing in Liberian waters. The project aimed to address two distinct but interrelated problems. First, the issue of the vulnerable nature of livelihoods among women in small-scale fishing, and second, the low awareness and limited capacity concerning PSMA implementation for preventing IUU fishing in Liberia. The project was implemented in three counties of Liberia: Montserrado, Margibi and Grand Bassa. | |
