Shifting to sustainable agriculture is a crucial part of climate adaptation, and women are part of the solution.
Transforming food systems was a major focus of the last global climate negotiations at COP 28. (Read the declaration.) Climate change affects agriculture around the world, but women in the field have less agency to meet these challenges due to discrimination and unequal access to resources. Yet, they represent 43% of the agricultural labor force. (More context below.)
Join a group of farmers and climate specialists for a conversation on the role of women in agriculture and climate action. These specialists will detail issues specific to their regions, including some examples specific to Europe, and will make links between rural and urban contexts.
Co-organized by Daughters for Earth, Columbia Global Centers | Paris, and SHE Changes Climate.
