They may support the fishermen especially when faced with difficulties such as the loss or damage of fishing gears or canoes. Women may lend fishermen money or buy fishing equipment required to ensure that they are back on waters. Moreover, Liberian women are usually engaged in fish processing and marketing activities.<\/p>\n

As in most African countries, fishermen do the fishing and fix the fishing gear and boat; while women take over once the fish is unloaded from the boats whether through buying the catch or \u2013in case of the wives of fishermen- transport and market the catch, and in some cases transform it into dried or salted fish.<\/p>\n

Aside from fishing activities, women often feel more secure when move in groups especially in relatively distant trips.<\/p>\n
