Adaptation, vulnerability and resilience of people to climate
change depend upon a range of conditions. These vary from their
degree of exposure and dependency upon weather patterns for
livelihoods and food security, to varying capacities in adaptation,
which are influenced by gender, social status, economic poverty,
power, access, and control and ownership over resources in the
household, community and society. This report demonstrates that
women represent a primary resource for adaptation through their
their experience, responsibilities and strengh, and that women play
a much stronger role in the management of ecosystem services and
food security. Hence, it argues that sustainable adaptation must
focus on gender and the role of women if it is to become
successful.
