The African Development Bank, AFD and European Bank for Reconstruction and Development have developed a tool to help assess how gender-responsive an organization's climate strategies and actions are. It will identify areas that are gender blind and suggest actions to take.
Launched on Gender Day on November 14, the Gender Equality in Climate Action Accelerator will help private sector companies improve the gender responsiveness of corporate climate governance. It will also help governments to promote gender-sensitive climate policies, thereby accelerating their green transition to meet Paris Agreement targets, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Gender Action Plan and key Sustainable Development Goals.
