Abstract

The paper attempts to analyse and synthesise the findings from the various studies conducted across different sections and stakeholders pertaining to the fisheries sector across the world focusing specifically in the global south. While there have been studies on the immediate impact, the paper examined the direct and indirect impact of covid pandemic on the fisheries sector with particular attention paid to the externalities that have developed as unprecedented changes occurred. As a result of these changes, several adaptation and mitigation strategies have been implemented by stakeholders across the fisheries value chain which is presented in the paper. Keeping in mind the expanded scope, the current paper looked at over 65 peer reviewed research articles published during May 2020-March 2022 from Google scholar and Web of Science platforms. Additionally, reports from organisations such as FAO, Oxfam and World fish were examined. While it is certainly true that there have been devastating impacts of the pandemic across the fisheries sector, there are also lessons to be learnt in re-building the world better and therefore the paper also contributes to developing a framework of adaptation and mitigation strategies from the experiences of the countries in the global south.
