Addressing gender inequalities and strengthening women's agency to create more climate-resilient and sustainable food systems por Bryan, Elizabeth, Alvi, Muzna, Huyer, Sophia, Ringler, Claudia

“…If climate-smart and climate-resilient interventions do not adequately take gender differences into account, they might exacerbate gender inequalities in food systems by, for instance, increasing women's labor burden and time poverty, reducing their access to and control over income and assets, and reducing their decision-making power. At the same time, women's contributions are critical to make food systems more resilient to the negative impacts of climate change, given their specialized knowledge, skills and roles in agri-food systems, within the household, at work and in their communities. …”
