Investing in women isn't just the right thing to do; it's key to boosting climate action. Here's why:
👉 Although #climatechange affects everyone, it does not affect everyone equally.
Initiatives that consider the different needs, roles and responsibilities of women and men in all their diversity and ensure their equal participation in decision-making at all levels are more effective and inspire social cohesion 💚, benefiting society as a whole.
Yet, according to @unwomen, only 0.01% of global funding 💰 supports projects that address both climate and women's rights.
☑ Designing and implementing gender-responsive budgets and financing mechanisms at national and international levels ensures that these initiatives are properly and sustainably implemented.
Transitioning towards low-carbon and more just economies requires #financing, which is the key driver of climate action, but it must address specific challenges and harness the contributions of half of the world's population - girls and women.
