Gender analysis of the Paris Agreement and implications for Africa - briefing note
Abstract
Societies construct acceptable roles for men and women-which determines what they are expected to do, the knowledge they have, their control over power and resources, and their decision-making capacity. These gender differences also influence the ways in which men and women experience climate change. In order to not reinforce inequality, being gender-responsive highlights awareness of these differences, and the importance of being gender-equitable in implementation.
