Monday, November 14, 13:00-14:00 EET
This event will highlight why women and youth are more exposed to climate change and how climate adaptation strategies and climate-smart agriculture can help achieve resilience, gender equality and social equity outcomes at once.
Speakers will share insights on gender and climate hotspot mapping, the Gender Empowerment Index and explore the enabling policy and financial environment to increase gender equality and social inclusion in climate resilience.
