The report assesses gender inequalities in Thailand, specifically within the agricultural sector, to inform a climate resilience project. It identifies that while women are active in farming, they face systemic barriers in decision-making, resource access, and leadership, particularly in water management. The document proposes a comprehensive action plan including the use of gender-responsive participatory tools, the establishment of a gender working group, and targeted support for women's leadership and financial access to ensure that at least 50% of project beneficiaries are women.

The document highlights the high climate risk in Southeast Asia and specifically Northern Thailand, where agricultural productivity is threatened by temperature shifts and precipitation changes. It argues that vulnerability is disproportionately higher for specific groups, including women and girls, and seeks to fill a research gap regarding how age, gender, poverty, and ethnicity intersect to shape the climate challenges faced by young women and girls in this region.

The study examines how climate variability affects freshwater fish fry production in 15 government hatcheries in Northern Thailand, identifying key constraints and proposing resilience strategies.
