Integrate Gender equality and women’s empowerment
• Gender-inequities can make women more vulnerable to climate change
• Women have solutions & knowledge for adaptation, but may lack the resources or power to use them
What do we do?
• Participatory, gendered analysis of vulnerability and throughout CBA process
• Design gender-equitable adaptation strategies with participation of women and men
• Promote rights and voice of women in adaptation decision making and action
• Challenge inequitable control over assets and power relations

Linking local evidence to national strategies and global policy
• Create space for exchange and learning between adaptation actors
• Participation in policy processes strengthens relations and influence
• Global policy dialogue and local evidence from CBA informs national and local adaptation strategies and plans
