WP3 PROTECT addresses women’s lack of access to and control over resources and tests how gender responsive social protection can promote both climate resilience and gender equality.
POLICIES & GOVERNANCE
Identify and model diverse scenarios for socio-technical innovation bundles (STIB), bundling climate-smart technologies to empower women to be partners and drivers of climate change solutions.
Target normative constraints that limit the capacities of women as food-system actors to build economic resilience to climate change challenges using gender-transformative approaches.
