Fact sheet presented at the UNFCCC COP 13, held in Bali in December 2007.
Climate change does not affect women and men in the same way; it has, and
will continue to have, a different impact depending on gender. Therefore,
all aspects related to climate change (i.e., mitigation, adaptation, policy
development and decision making) must include a gender perspective.

Fact sheet presented at the UNFCCC COP 13, held in Bali in December
2007. It is crucial to understand the role played by women when considering
the complexity of the services provided by forests and rain forests to
mitigate climate change. Strategies are now designed to: comprehend and
take account of the different benefits women and men receive from forestry
services; recognize gender differences in having access to and controlling
knowledge about forest resources; and identifying significant differences in
the access women and men have to decisions, institutions and economic
opportunities related to forestry.

Fact sheet presented at the UNFCCC COP 13, held in Bali in December
2007. Energy is a means of satisfying needs. Both women and men depend
on energy for most of their daily activities, but they have different needs and
roles; in addition, the different energy services have different impacts on men
and women. In the past, the energy needs of women, and their lifestyles,
were ignored. Both traditional fuels and modern energy services have certain
limitations that may increase the problems women face.
