In this advocacy brief, UNICEF and Karama emphasize the importance of addressing gender-specific impacts in climate action, particularly focusing on girls, who face heightened vulnerabilities due to climate change.
Climate change exacerbates existing gender inequalities, affecting girls' access to education, health, and safety, while also increasing risks of gender-based violence and child marriage, especially in marginalized communities. In response, UNICEF and Karama, through the Technical Cohort to Advance Adolescent Girls and Young Women's Leadership in Climate Change, advocate for tailored climate adaptation strategies that include girls' voices and needs.
They call for increased funding for social services, gender-responsive education, and empowering girls in climate decision-making and leadership roles. The brief urges the integration of gender considerations in climate policies, funding, and resource allocation, highlighting the need to address the unique challenges faced by girls, particularly in the Middle East and North Africa region.
