- COVID-19 highlights the need to improve resilience and equity in managing small-scale fisheries. Mangubhai, Sangeeta Olguín-Jacobson, Carolina Charles, Anthony Cinner, Joshua de Vos, Asha Graham, Rachel T Ishimura, Gaku Mills, Katherine E Naggea, Josheena Okamoto, Daniel K O'Leary, Jennifer K Salomon, Anne K Rashid Sumaila, U White, Alan Micheli, Fiorenza The COVID-19 pandemic exposed the fragility of global and domestic seafood markets. We examined the main impacts and responses of the small-scale fisheries (SSF) sector, and found that mitigation and preparedness strategies should be prioritised to boost resilience in SSF. We provide five policy options and considerations: (1) improving access to insurance and financial services; (2) strengthening local and regional markets and supporting infrastructure; (3) recognising fisheries as an essential service; (4) integrating disaster risk management into fisheries management systems; and (5) investing in Indigenous and locally-led fisheries management. Response and recovery measures need to explicitly build strategies to maintain or boost inclusion and equity in SSF.
