The State of Sex-disaggregated Data for Assessing the Impact of Climate Change

摘要

Gender mainstreaming is essential when creating approaches and policies that are effective for men as well as women. The impacts of climate change are unlikely to be gender neutral, as its effects will increase the risk of the most vulnerable and least empowered group in the society. This study generates new information that highlights differences, and more specifically, the underlying dissimilar conditions and factors, that men and women may experience while facing the potential effects of climate change.
