This report presents the findings of a sector wide human rights impact assessment (SWIA)1 carried out in small-scale artisanal fishing communities in Barguna and Cox’s Bazar Districts in Bangladesh during 2019-2020. The SWIA examined the living- and working conditions of poor small-scale fishers and their families through a human rights lens. This approach allows for a holistic analysis of their situation, in line with the current development paradigm’s multi-dimensional understanding of poverty, and the 2030 Agenda’s grounding in human rights.
