Policy Statement
EAC commits to addressing the gender dimensions of environmental degradation and climate change.
Rationale
Climate change disproportionately affects women due to their roles in agriculture, water collection, and household management.
Key Gaps Identified
- •Weak gender mainstreaming in climate policies
- •Limited access to climate adaptation resources for women
- •Insufficient gender-disaggregated climate data
- •Low women's participation in climate governance
