IMPLIQUER LES FEMMES DANS LES TRANSITIONS JUSTES

The report argues that climate action and gender equality are synergistic and must be integrated to achieve a just transition. Based on 12 projects in 17 countries, it identifies four axes for empowerment: improving productivity of existing activities, helping women enter male-dominated sectors, consolidating low-carbon business plans, and providing access to new green technologies. Key findings highlight that women's traditional knowledge is often inherently low-carbon and that removing discriminatory barriers—such as limited land rights and social norms—can accelerate climate resilience and economic growth. The document provides specific recommendations for policymakers to integrate gender-sensitive budgeting and support women's leadership in sectors like regenerative agriculture, the blue economy, and ecotourism.

• The GLOW programme identifies four primary axes to strengthen women's autonomy while promoting climate mitigation and adaptation: making current activities more productive and eco-friendly, facilitating entry into male-dominated sectors, consolidating low-carbon business plans, and providing access to innovative green technologies.
• In natural resource-based sectors, it is impractical to separate low-carbon goals from climate resilience; combining emission reductions with crisis resilience yields the best results.
• Women often possess ancestral knowledge and practices that are naturally low-carbon and ecologically sustainable, such as the production of bio-plates and baskets from non-timber forest products in Nepal.
• Gender norms act as significant barriers to climate action; for example, in coastal Kenya, social norms preventing women from swimming limit their access to sustainable blue economy jobs like integrated multi-trophic aquaculture.
• Solar-powered irrigation in Senegal and Guinea has significantly reduced the physical burden of manual irrigation for women, reducing daily workloads from 7.7 hours to 7 hours and increasing average horticultural income from $1,165 to $2,541 per year.
• In Bolivia, ecotourism is identified as a viable alternative to male-dominated, environmentally harmful mining, with the potential to become the country's primary export product within 5 to 6 years.
• Women's access to new green technologies, such as black soldier fly farming and aquaponics, reduces barriers to entry because these systems typically require less land and lower initial capital than traditional production.
• The report highlights a 'pyramid' of women's autonomy in low-carbon transitions, where most documentation focuses on women as consumers or care providers, while there is very little support for women as producers, business leaders, or policymakers.
• Digital gaps persist in rural Nepal, where fewer than 5% of women farmers use digital technologies specifically for agricultural information, despite 63% believing such tools could increase production.
• In Cameroon, an analysis of 12 national policies on land restoration found that more than half did not account for gender dimensions across the three criteria of empowerment: resource control, information access, and power.
• The report emphasizes that unpaid care work must be addressed as part of climate action, as redistributing these tasks would allow women more time for income-generating low-carbon activities.
