Description:
The Gender Checklist has been developed under UN-HABITAT’s Cities and Climate Change Initiative (CCCI). This Initiative seeks to enhance climate change mitigation and adaptation capacity of cities in developing and least developed countries. The Checklist will look at the gendered impacts of climate change and the opportunities for women relative to men to feed their own knowledge into community, city or national-level adaptation and mitigation strategies to strengthen processes of reducing climate change impacts in the short and long-term. It will also look at climate change and urban governance, specifically in the context of implementing mitigation and adaptation actions, and how gender-specific issues can be mainstreamed to ensure that women together with men, of different social categories, have the capability and equal access to mitigation and adaptation opportunities, such community-led capacity building initiatives on climate change, that can greatly contribute to the promotion and incentivization of green micro and small enterprises, for example in urban agriculture and the waste sector.
