#GSFW2021 Strengthening social inclusion in policy and financing processes to secure feminist and just climate transition
In this episode, the panel explores methods of “Strengthening social inclusion in policy and financing processes to secure feminist and just climate transition”. The climate crisis severely threatens vulnerable communities’ livelihoods, access to food, water, and shelter. It exacerbates existing inequalities caused by differences in gender, socioeconomic class, race, ethnicity and age, and undermines development. Despite this, these communities, which also have the fewest resources to adapt or mitigate its effects, have drawn from their lived experiences to take countless inventive steps to slow it and address its impacts. Yet, they are often not involved in policy and decision-making. The global decision-making process needs to shift to more inclusivity and centre the voices, knowledge, and skills of communities, particularly women in the Global South, and leverage on their locally shaped climate solutions for inclusive and just climate transition.
This episode is from the 2021 Global South Women’s Forum on Sustainable Development hosted by International Women’s Rights Action Watch Asia Pacific, a feminist organisation committed to the full realisation of women’s human rights through the pursuit of equality.
