Understanding the gender imbalance at the international climate negotiations

Despite progress in recent years, women are still being held back from participating in international talks on climate.

"With only 37% of women attendees at COP26 in Glasgow forming part of an official national delegation, the UNFCCC’s latest report on gender in the climate change negotiations shows that parity remains a challenge. And figures on women’s roles and engagement during the meetings show that, although they may form part of the delegations, speaking time and decision-making positions are often monopolised by men".

Women and other marginalised groups are the most effected by climate change globally, hence inclusive gender sensitive governance leads to more effective and sustainable adaptation outcomes, reducing vulnerability and climate risks.

Women must have a voice and a seat at the table to ensure negotiations lead toward a gender just transition.
