Abstract This article presents the results of an impact assessment of a component of a large scale USAID sustainable fisheries management project initiative aimed at integrating gender and strengthening the role of women in fisheries management in Ghana. The assessment is based on a literature review and qualitative field data collection. It assessed gender integration from three entry points: improving the Ghanaian policy environment for gender in fisheries, empowering women post-harvest processors, and engaging women gleaners in fisheries co-management. The assessment found that an important milestone was the adoption and implementation of the Ghanaian Fisheries Sector’s National Gender Mainstreaming Strategy in 2016. Summarizing the impacts on local post-harvest processors and gleaners, the assessment found that female post-harvest processors have increased capacity, confidence, and engagement in fisheries management. Gender mainstreaming efforts have succeeded in challenging cultural norms about women’s role in fisheries. Women have been exposed to sustainable fisheries management and are better equipped with the knowledge and leadership skills to advocate for good fisheries practices, which they actively demonstrate.

评估性别融合对加纳渔业部门的影响

摘要 本文介绍了美国国际开发署大规模可持续渔业管理项目计划的一个组成部分的影响评估结果，该计划旨在整合性别和加强妇女在加纳渔业管理中的作用。该评估基于文献综述和定性现场数据收集。它从三个切入点评估了性别整合：改善加纳渔业性别政策环境、赋予女性收获后加工者权力以及让女性收集者参与渔业共同管理。评估发现，一个重要的里程碑是 2016 年通过和实施加纳渔业部门的国家性别主流化战略。 总结了对当地收获后加工商和收集者的影响，评估发现，女性收获后加工者在渔业管理方面的能力、信心和参与度有所提高。性别主流化努力成功地挑战了关于妇女在渔业中的作用的文化规范。妇女已经接触到可持续渔业管理，并且更具备知识和领导技能来倡导良好的渔业做法，她们积极展示了这一点。
