Abstract/Description
Women and men farmers can be differentially vulnerable to climate related risk due in part to the varied roles and responsibilities that they carry out in their communities and households. While climate services can be critical for enhancing farmers’ adaptive capacities, women and men can face varying opportunities and challenges to access climate services and implement climate information in agricultural decision-making.
The CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture, and Food Security (CCAFS) had various activities that acknowledged these differences in risks, and one of the priorities of the climate services flagship was ensuring that women benefitted from climate services initiatives.
The following resources represent information, analysis, and recommendations, drawing from CCAFS’s climate services and gender activities. This bibliography serves as a first step to a broader framework that will be available throughout the AICCRA project.
