A trailblazing Ugandan championing women in African fisheries: Q&A with Lovin Kobusingye

Lovin Kobusingye is making waves in Uganda by advocating for the inclusion of women in African fisheries, an often overlooked sector in discussions about the blue economy. At a recent gathering in Kenya, she highlighted the significant roles women play in catching, processing, and selling fish, yet they remain marginalized. Kobusingye's work is crucial because it aims to empower women economically and socially, contributing to sustainable development and gender equality in Africa's growing fishing industry. Her efforts underscore the importance of inclusive economic policies to harness the full potential of Africa's resources.
