Gender and Climate Change in the Republic of Serbia
17 Oct 2020
Women and men have different vulnerabilities to climate change impacts on food security, agricultural productivity, livelihood, water availability, sanitation, health and energy, among others. Existing gender inequalities, such as limited access to natural resources and productive assets including land and finance and to household and community decision-making constrain their ability to adapt to and cope with climate change. Thus, in global climate policy and action, gender equality is slowly gaining recognition and is now officially as an agenda item under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The UNFCCC is the UN treaty that governs international climate change negotiations and agreements, including discussions about emerging climate finance architecture. It shapes national climate change policies, too.
