De la connaissance à la pratique : Intégration de l'égalité des sexes et de l'inclusion sociale dans les solutions d'adaptation fondées sur la nature

Nature-based solutions (NbS) are an opportunity to address climate change adaptation needs, but initiatives need to be responsive to intersectional gender differences to be effective. Gender-responsive NbS can help to address underlying vulnerabilities to climate change, enabling populations who face socio-economic, cultural, and political barriers to build their adaptation capacity, realize their rights, and participate in adaptation decision-making while also building the resilience of local ecosystems that sustain their livelihoods.

Aga Khan Foundation Canada (AKFC) and the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) hosted a hybrid event on designing and implementing NbS that advance gender equality and social inclusion (GESI).
