Strengthened national commitments to gender-responsive climate action

Multi-stakeholder participation.

Climate Change Gender Action Plans (ccGAPs) build on a country’s national development and climate change policy or strategy, and identify gender-specific issues in each priority sector. The participatory, multi-stakeholder methodology includes creating action plans to enhance mitigation and resilience for women and men throughout the country.

The Art of Implementation

See the methodology.

Having developed the world’s first gender-responsive national strategies and roadmaps on climate change, IUCN has published its ccGAP methodology and approach, containing ccGAPs from around the world, detailed case studies, roadmaps and more. As the title suggests, implementation of international agreements in individual countries is an art, not a science. There are diverse factors and challenges at play, including political will, adequate finance, and complex governance arrangements. The art of implementation is a journey toward the realisation of important ideas, a bridging of the gap between our aspirations and our achievements, and a continuous learning curve.

Bangladesh Climate Change Gender Action Plan

With the support of IUCN, the Ministry of Environment and Forest (MoEF) of the Government of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh produced a national climate change gender action plan. The ccGAP defines the role that the MoEF will play in initiating and facilitating efforts internally, as well as with strategic partners at the national, regional and international levels. It seeks to mainstream gender in climate change advantage of opportunities that promote gender equality and facilitate transformational change as we build a climate action as outlined in the BCCSAP, the NAPA and other policy documents.
