Inside Story: Fostering peri-urban resilience: Gender-responsive approaches in northern India
This case study by the Gorakhpur Environmental Action Group (GEAG) examines the challenges of fostering climate resilience in the peri-urban areas of Uttar Pradesh, India. It argues that current urban development policies treat populations as homogeneous, ignoring gender, class, and age differences that affect vulnerability to climate hazards. The document advocates for gender-responsive, climate-smart development solutions that increase women's participation in decision-making and address the silos between urban, peri-urban, and rural governance.
