Gender-Responsive Climate Policy

Gender-responsive climate policy acknowledges the different ways climate change affects men and women. It ensures that both genders' needs, experiences, and knowledge are considered in policy-making. This approach empowers women, who are often disproportionately impacted by climate issues, by involving them in decision-making processes. By integrating gender perspectives, these policies aim to create more effective and equitable solutions for climate adaptation and mitigation, ultimately leading to sustainable development that benefits everyone.
