Gender & Climate Change: New FAO Report

Dear Colleagues,

In the context of the growing body of literature on gender and climate change, we are pleased to announce the release of a new FAO report:

Farmers in a changing climate: Does gender matter?
Food security in Andhra Pradesh, India

The report provides concrete evidence of how gender roles and gender-differentiated access to resources shape men and women�s perceptions and experiences of climate variability, as well as their coping strategies and related institutional support. Recommendations for addressing gender issues in the context of climate change adaptation, particularly with regard to food security and farming-based livelihoods are made; the methodological approach and tools are also discussed in detail.

The report is a result of a multi-year research project carried out by an international, multidisciplinary team and can be downloaded here: http://www.fao.org/docrep/013/i1721e/i1721e00.htm

For further information and collaboration, please visit the project website http://www.fao.org/climatechange/54818/en/ and/or contact the authors.

Best regards,
Yianna Lambrou (Yianna....@fao.org) and Sibyl Nelson (Sibyl....@fao.org)
