Abstract

Kenya’s submission on gender and climate change, supported by CGIAR, emphasizes the need for a GAP that promotes tangible, grassroots-level climate action, including mainstreaming gender in national policies, mapping gender-related climate vulnerabilities (in agriculture, water, and energy), and appointing focal points to promote gender-sensitive climate policies.

There is a need for more gender-responsive budgeting, tools for gender analysis, and better technical support to empower women, especially in agriculture, where climate resilience efforts are critical for food security. For the next GAP it is needed enhanced data use, support for women and youth in sustainable agriculture, and dedicated funding to strengthen gendered approaches to climate resilience.

This blog post covers updates on COP29 negotiations as tracked, analyzed, and reported by the CGIAR Climate Impact Platform.
