Climate Justice Program
The
scale and urgency of the global climate crisis and natural resources
degradation demands an augmented effort to promote climate justice and
sustainable natural resources governance to tackle the gendered consequences of
climate change and natural resource degradation and the drivers causing it.
Climate change and natural resources degradation exacerbate
existing gender inequalities and have a disproportionate impact on women and
girls, because of the roles that they are assigned and the discrimination they
face.
Help
Uganda works to strengthen the resilience and adaptive
capacities of women and girls to the effects of climate change and promotes
their meaningful participation in sustainable natural resources governance.
Help Uganda addresses
structural gender inequalities caused by climate change and natural resource
degradation, supports women and girls to strengthen their resilience and
adaptive capacities vis-à-vis climate change and natural resources degradation,
and promotes women’s and girls’ meaningful participation in the governance of
climate change
adaptation and mitigation, disaster risk reduction as well as natural resources
governance initiatives.
