abstract: 'Purpose The purpose of this paper is to provide a better understanding
of the dynamics of institutional practices, socio-economic status and
vulnerability of shrimp fry catchers in the south-west region of
Bangladesh.
Design/methodology/approach This study draws on primary research
conducted through face-to-face interviews with women fry collectors in
the south-west region of Bangladesh. This study attempts to identify the
nature and extent of the impact of institutional practices on the women
engaged in catching fry regarding their positioning within the
institutional framework.
Findings In the coastal region of Bangladesh, the shrimp sector has
opened up economic opportunities for women in terms of access to income
and employment. However, women have to make a trade-off between
employment gain in terms of wage and health hazards caused due to poor
working conditions. The findings of the study indicate that shrimp fry
catching, complemented by other sources of income, can only help women
to survive. The study also finds that the vulnerability of the fry
collectors is the end result of mutually interacting institutional
practices under different institutional domains. Accordingly,
recommendations are made with a view to effectively utilizing social
capital at the community level, which will be particularly helpful in
raising fry catchers'' voice in the local political arena and
strengthening their position in the marketplace. Due to the higher
preferences of buyers towards wild fry and the participation of a huge
number of people in fry collecting, this study suggests rethinking
government intervention in this regard.
Originality/value This is original research focusing on the underlying
structural and institutional factors behind the marginalization and
vulnerability of women and devising policies that will enable
modification of the factors that restrain women.'
