Fri, March 12, 2021 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM See description. Speaker: Philippa Cohen is a Research Leader at WorldFish and has the privilege to work with a diverse research delivering research to improve food and nutrition security and wellbeing experiences by small-scale fishers.

We frequently hear about demise and decline in fisheries systems. This narrative can inadvertently shift the focus of research and funding away from the opportunities and benefits available within the fisheries sector. In this presentation I share recent research on equity, justice, and nutrition through fisheries. I seek to stimulate a discussion with the group about the opportunities we have as researchers to contribute to, and rebalance, what ‘food system transformations’ might look for sustainability, nutrition and human wellbeing outcomes.
