What happened
UN Women is urging governments at the COP31 climate summit in Antalya to incorporate women’s rights into climate policy.

UN Women also noted that while 73% of countries identify gender-specific climate risks, only about one-third take a comprehensive approach to these risks.

Why it matters
The agency reported that gender equality is a priority in only 4% of climate-related official development assistance. Furthermore, in a study covering 24 countries, a 1°C temperature increase was associated with women’s income losses being 34% greater than men’s. UN Women estimates that investment could add 68 million jobs for women by 2035.
