Sem igualdade e inclusão, um futuro sustentável mantém-se fora de alcance
Summary
The statement emphasizes that women and girls are disproportionately affected by the climate crisis due to existing gender norms and marginalization, particularly regarding food security and resource access. Conversely, it asserts that women, especially indigenous women, are indispensable agents of change whose leadership and traditional knowledge are vital for effective, inclusive climate action and sustainable resource management.
Key insights
- Women and girls experience the impacts of climate change differently than other groups due to existing gender norms and discrimination, with marginalized groups generally being the most affected by rising sea levels, temperature increases, and extreme weather.
- Women face heightened vulnerability because they are often disproportionately responsible for family food security—which is threatened by reduced agricultural productivity, water scarcity, and rising food prices—and have marginalized access to and control over natural resources.
- Women, particularly indigenous women with unique knowledge of conservation and agriculture, are essential leaders in climate adaptation and mitigation; their inclusion in decision-making leads to more holistic and effective climate solutions.
