The intense physical work and danger that comes with fishing on Lake Kivu in Rwanda, along with reinforcement from traditional gender roles, kept women from fishing for generations, tending to backyard farms instead. But in post-genocide Rwanda, that seems to be changing. Today, women form an essential part of the national market for Lake Kivu fish. Besides catching the fish, women also buy the fish, haul the catch to their small villages and sell the fish to cooperatives. At the cooperatives, other women prepare the fish to be transported. Women then transport the fish across the country, in buckets and sacks, and sell the fish in urban markets. The fish economy has created opportunities for women to form collectives and income. “Now a woman can say: ‘I can build a house by myself. I can look after my family properly. And even if my husband dies, we can live a better life.’” @hollypickettpix took this photo of Zawadi Karikumutima, a fisherwomen, on Lake Kivu.
