Women Climate Collective’s Post

HAPPY WOMEN'S DAY 🎊 🎉 As the world celebrate women today, we must recognize the important contributions of women as decision makers, caretakers, stakeholders, experts and educators across all sectors for a sustainable solution to climate change. We can solve climate change if we involve women. For practical and effective climate change mitigation, we must unleash the knowledge and capability of women. Via World Economic Forum

The Climate Zeitgeist: Leading Women and Initiatives During Crisis Published on She Breaks Barriers #Climate #Climatechange #Climatecrisis #Women #Womenempowerment #Communities https://lnkd.in/d3tNCmxV

Women, who often bear the brunt of climate change impacts, bring unique insights and approaches to the table. However, they remain underrepresented in key decision-making processes and leadership positions. Elevating women's voices in climate leadership isn't just about diversity - it's about tapping into a wealth of untapped potential to drive more inclusive and effective solutions to combat the climate crisis. #ClimateAction #ClimateChange #GenderEquality

In the fight against climate change, acknowledging its unequal impacts is key to crafting effective solutions. Women, often disproportionately affected by climate change due to social and economic factors, play a vital role in shaping inclusive strategies. 💡Here are four reasons why women are indispensable allies in the fight for a climate-resilient future. Why do you think it’s crucial to involve women in climate action efforts, and how do you believe their participation can positively impact our response to the climate crisis? #SHEChangesClimate #WomenInClimate #ClimateAction

Well said, SHE Changes Climate! Four reasons women play a vital role in shaping a climate-resilient future and must be included in climate action. What would you add, thinking about the tourism industry in particular? #GenderJustice #ClimateJustice #ClimateResilience #WomenInTourism

Women demonstrate over and over again that we are a force for change.  Women consistently prioritize the safety, security, and wellbeing of their families, often with limited resources to achieve their goals. Build Change helps to ensure women's full and equal participation in home improvement, strengthening, and rebuilding. Women homeowners represent over 60% of Build Change’s clients. We shift power to women so they can better protect themselves and their families when faced with earthquakes and extreme weather, grow their assets and home-based businesses, and lead the march toward resilient housing for all. Women are responsible borrowers and fierce stewards of their family’s safety. Women leaders in government, private sector, and civil society are creating change every day in the housing sector, and we are proud to collaborate closely with them.

Understanding the nuanced impact of climate change on women is crucial for inclusive resilience planning. From limited access to weather information to exclusion from decision-making, women face unique challenges. Let's work together towards equitable solutions for a sustainable future.#climatejustice #genderequality

People living in climate-vulnerable communities need sustainable solutions—now. Within these fragile contexts, women bear the weight of feeding and providing for their families, often with fewer resources. And without inclusive, climate-smart innovations, more than 3 billion people will face acute hunger by 2050. Mercy Corps’ Women’s Climate Alliance is working to rewrite this narrative by partnering with women to position them as leaders in climate innovation and equipping them with the tools to build resilience within their communities. Because, together, we can cultivate real, sustainable change. Learn more about the Women's Climate Alliance: https://lnkd.in/gfyD4w-T #women #climate #internationaldevelopment #humanitarianaid
