The World Bank is making strides in
mainstreaming gender-sensitive approaches to climate action
on the ground. Ensuring that men and women have equal access
to education, economic opportunities, productive inputs and
equal chances to become socially and politically active can
generate broad productivity gains, and lead to more
inclusive and greener development path for all. For the
World Bank, gender analysis is an integral aspect of the
upstream social analysis that is required to inform both
development policy lending (DPL) and investment lending
(IL). It helps identify and suggest ways to mitigate
possible risks in terms of exacerbating gender inequality,
and highlight opportunities to enhance positive outcomes for
gender equality. The entry points for such upstream gender
analysis include Poverty and Social Impact Analysis (PSIA)
in the case of DPL, climate financing mechanisms are
beginning to adopt gender-sensitive approaches in program
design and results frameworks, but more needs to be done.
Much can be done to improve the effectiveness of climate
finance and actions on the ground by ensuring that gender
relations are taken into account in design, implementation,
and measurement of results. But this can only be achieved
through a concerted effort to apply a gender lens in climate
finance mechanisms. It matters for development, and it
matters for effective action on climate change. |
