Summary: | This chapter aims to provide a broad overview of how gender aspects as part of DEI efforts have been integrated into climate policy and its design, and the subsequent outcomes of its implementation. While a burgeoning corpus of literature now exists on the gender repercussions of climate change geographically by region and by policy sector, comparatively less scholarship explicitly links gender to climate policymaking and its study, and we shed light on this element in particular. We bring in a discussion of Diversity, considering issues around adequate gender representation in climate policies; of Equity, considering issues around climate policies and adaptation and mitigation decisions being fair and equitable given gender-differentiated vulnerabilities, and that of Inclusion considering whether there is participation of the most vulnerable communities such as women in decision-making related to the climate. |
