On South Korea’s Jeju Island, generations of women have made their living by diving in the ocean on a single breath to harvest shellfish and seaweed. These free-diving fisherwomen, known as haenyeo, embody a thousand-year-old tradition of strength, skill and sustainability. In 2023 FAO designated the Jeju Haenyeo Fisheries System as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System.
