On March 20, 2025, the World Forum of Fisher People (WFFP) successfully hosted a remarkable International Women’s Day celebration under the theme Women of Waves (WoW) Rise Together. The virtual event, held from 7:30 PM to 9:30 PM IST, brought together fisherwomen, activists, and allies from around the world to honor the resilience, strength, and collective action of women in fisheries.
*Key Discussions*:- Fisherwomen’s role in sustaining life and livelihoods

- Stories of strength, solidarity, and resistance
A special poster summarizing the struggles and solutions shared by women at the 8th General Assembly of the @world_forum_of_fisher_peoples in Brasília was published by WFFP. The poster was designed by Marcela Dalete and highlights key insights from the discussions, reinforcing the importance of collective action in the fight for justice and equality.
