August 26, 2022 — Gender equity and gender equality have moved to the forefront of work in corporate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) efforts in the seafood industry, according to Seafood and Gender Equality (SAGE) Founder Julie Kuchepatov.
Organizations like SAGE and International Organisation for Women in the Seafood Industry (WSI) are working to raise awareness that the gender equity movement can help seafood firms both improve and strengthen the durability of their company and respond to increasing concerns from the marketplace or investors about a company’s gender values, according to Kuchepatov.
