Strengthening women’s resilience and participation in climate governance in the agrifood sector through public policies
Women are vulnerable to adverse climate change impacts, and their active involvement and decision-making in climate change and agrifood governance are limited, especially in the Global South. New research based on a strategic review of literature conducted as part of CGIAR research initiative HER+—Harnessing gender and social equality for resilience in agrifood systems—indicates that public policies are vital instruments toward improving women’s participation in climate change governance and enhancing their resilience.
