At #COP29, gender equality is essential for impactful climate action! Stientje van Veldhoven, World Resources Institute Vice President, is joined by Rebecca Carter, PhD, WRI Climate Adaption Director, to discuss how women, especially those in rural areas, are both the most affected by and the greatest drivers of climate solutions. Women make up a significant portion of the agricultural workforce, playing a vital role in land restoration and sustainable practices. Watch the video to see how investing in women-led climate solutions can build resilient communities and a sustainable future.  #GenderEquality #ClimateAction #ClimateAction #WRI #ClimateFinance #ClimateGoal #SustainableFuture #NetZero #NDCs #ClimateJustice #GlobalGoals #ClimateSummit 

By strengthening climate action, we are also advancing gender equality. Investing in the clean energy transition means investing in those who are most affected by the worlds' toughest challenges. Here at Deetken Impact, we are committed to sustainable long-term solutions to address these dual urgencies of our time.

The global climate event for the well-being of the planet, #COP29 is halfway done, yet there are mostly false promises and little clarity on what actions look like in terms of funding, gender equality, human rights and inclusion for all. When thinking about climate solutions, women and girls need to be at the forefront; not only because they are the most affected by the climate crisis but are also the ones who are at the forefront of leading any kind of action to adapt, mitigate, reimagine shifts that can bring about change that is meaningful, inclusive and equitable. #womenshealth #climateaction #genderequality

Tomorrow, #COP29 kicks off! And today we are marking the launch of the Geneva Pledge for Gender-Responsive Climate Action by the International Gender Champions Network. 🌍 EIGE's Director Carlien Scheele joins fellow #INTGenderChampions in committing to 6 key principles for gender equality & inclusion in #ClimateAction. Why is this important?   🔹 Climate change affects women and men differently   🔹 Diverse perspectives are essential for effective climate solutions   🔹 Gender-responsive approaches lead to more sustainable outcomes There is no climate justice without gender justice! 🌍 #EIGE #GenderEquality #Leadership 

#COP29 Yesterday’s #GenderEqualityDay highlighted that a just climate transition isn’t possible without gender equality. ♀️ Climate change is exacerbating the differences between the genders worldwide. Women are affected harder by the impact of the climate crisis. From greater vulnerability in rural areas to increased risk of violence during extreme weather events - women face unique challenges due to climate inequality. Climate policy therefore needs to consider gender as a factor and consequently tackle inequalities. Women can be powerful agents of climate action if included in decision-making processes and given access to the right resources.
