dc.description.abstractAccess to adequate weather and agro-advisory knowledge, gender-responsive improved technology, decision-making processes and financial services remain critical issues for women in the face of climate change. Socially constructed gender-specific roles and responsibilities, daily activities, access to and control over resources, decision-making and opportunities lead men and women to interact differently with natural resources and landscapes in the face of climate change. Two key areas of interaction are access to productive resources and weather information. In countries such as Lesotho, Mozambique and Sierra Leone, women constitute over 60% of the agricultural labour force.en
