Description

Global research also shows that growing gender inequalities can also give rise to inequalities in health. Evidence shows that climate change is already causing health impacts in the most vulnerable populations usually living in societies which are less resilient to climate change and climate vulnerabilities. Consequently, when climate change interacts with gender inequalities, it results in more pronounced negative health impacts in one sex over the other.
