Supporting women farmers in a changing climate
five policy lessons
This policy brief provides five lessons to support gender inclusive interventions for agriculture and food security, based on evidence and case studies from research in low- and middle-income countries. The brief also offers guidelines for crafting gender-responsive climate policies at global and national levels. Recommendations cover adoption of new technologies and practices; design and implementation of extension and climate information services; women’s role in developing climate-smart innovations and improving climate change policies and institutions.
