Global gender and environment outlook: the critical issues [1]

The global gender and environment outlook provides an overview of critical evaluations and analyses of the interlinkages between gender and the environment, and their importance for gender-sensitive policymaking and actions. Around the world, environmental conditions impact the lives of women and men in different ways as a result of existing inequalities. Gender roles often create differences in the ways men and women act in relation to the environment, and in the ways men and women are enabled or prevented from acting as agents of environmental change. UNEP and partners developed the Global Gender and Environment Outlook (GGEO), following the request of the Network of Women Ministers and Leaders for the Environment (NWMLE). The report aims to support governments in understanding the potential roles of men and women as agents of change and subsequently support development and implementation of gender sensitive environmental policies.
