dc.descriptionThis report describes two pilot activities in Sri Lanka meant to explore incomeearning opportunities for women from fishing communities. The activities relate to coir production in Ulhitiyawa, and sewing and tailoring in Mirissa. The report has been written up essentially as a case study of the two pilot activities, especially of the process of planning and implementation; It is not a complete record of the activities. The report concludes that the pilot activities have, on the whole, yielde d promising results. However, lack of management skills among women from fishing communities remains a major lacuna. The report, and the pilot activities it describes, have been organized by the smallscale fisheries project of the Bay of Bengal Programme (BOBP), in cooperation with several agencies: the Sri Lanka Mahila Samiti, a voluntary organization; the Women’s Bureau of the Ministry of Plan Implementation; and the Welfare Division of the Ministry of Fisheries.
