Measuring Climate Change with a gender dimension for better adaptation and mitigation policies
This project is being implemented by UNEP jointly with UNSD, in collaboration with other UN entities and Resident Coordinator Offices and four pilot countries, such as Cameroon, Colombia, Jordan and Tanzania, from 2025 to 2028. The project is funded by the 17th tranche of the United Nations Development Account.
The objective of the project is to strengthen the capacity of countries to produce climate change and disaster-related statistics, taking into consideration a gender perspective, and enhance analytical capacities for better adaptation and mitigation policies.
Main Deliverables of the project:
- A pilot list of core gender-sensitive climate change indicators proposed, and a methodological guidance developed.
- The results presented at meetings of the Expert Group on Environment and Climate Change Statistics and the Inter-Agency and Expert Group on Gender Statistics, to collect feedback and apply it to consolidate the proposed pilot list; and tested in four pilot countries.
- A report on Climate Change and Gender developed and global webinars organized to strengthen national capacity.
