Women's Role in Climate Action - Key Insights from Gambia Meeting

The MRV for Climate Action Programme held a meeting in Gambia on Thursday. The meeting was about research on gender and climate laws and programs. The program helps countries reduce greenhouse gas emissions and supports low-carbon answers to local development issues.

Neneh Touray is from the Ministry of Gender. She said that women's involvement in climate issues is important. It can make climate initiatives work better and be more sustainable. Women's participation can also help reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

However, women often face barriers that limit their role in climate governance. They may lack access to resources and be underrepresented in decision-making.

Touray said that climate change policies must address the crucial role women play. Policies must recognize the gender inequalities that hold back progress for women and sustainable development.

Omar Marena gave a presentation at the meeting. He discussed the terms of the research project, methods, policies, laws, and practices related to it, theoretical frameworks for analysis, and challenges related to policy and legislation.
