Gender and climate change
15/Nov/2019
Gender & climate are interlinked and climate change impacts men and women differently. The National Commission for Women and Children (NCWC), and the National Environment Commission (NEC) in partnership with UNDP Bhutan are working to mainstream gender in Bhutan's Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) process with focus on the three priority sectors of agriculture, waste and energy to help the country come up with an inclusive, gender-responsive climate action plan.
As part of the initiative, an in-depth assessment of gender and climate change in Bhutan has been carried out. A two-day stakeholder consultation meeting with the government, private sector & CSOs is underway to finalise the study report.
