WorldFish and the CGIAR Research Program on Fish Agri-Food Systems (FISH) are global leaders in aquatic food systems research and innovation, and science and partnerships are the foundation of our work. Our team delivers robust evidence to policymakers and technological innovations to producers, value chain actors and consumers in order to transform food systems. In this series, we profile our accomplished scientists in the spotlight.
Tasnuva Zaman is WorldFish’s senior gender specialist based in Bangladesh. Zaman’s research focuses on gender mainstreaming, which calls for an integrated gender perspective at all stages of development, and she works to design and implement policy frameworks in rural coastal communities. Since 2011, she has been involved in various projects with USAID, the European Union, and the Department for International Development. She collaborates on projects that address alternative livelihoods, food and nutrition security, gender equity, child education, and violence against women.
