Analysis Gender Harvard (Harvard Analytical Framework / Harvard Gender Analysis). The results showed that gender roles in fishing communities are formed through local cultural values that regulate the division of labor and social responsibilities between men and women. Although men predominantly serve as the main breadwinners through fishing activities, women also play strategic roles in the household economy and seafood processing. However, women's representation in community power structures remains limited, and their access to resources and decision-making spaces tends to be lower than that of men.

Therefore, understanding gender relations in coastal communities is important as a basis for encouraging more inclusive and gender-equitable fisher empowerment policies.
