Market Women Climate Literacy Engagement As Magical Accelerator
About Summit
Climate change, characterized by shifts in weather and temperature, poses significant challenges in the 21st century. Women and girls, particularly market women, face disproportionate impacts due to their critical roles in securing food, water, and resources. This summit brings together these frontline warriors and key stakeholders to recommend innovative solutions to climate challenges.
Summit's Aim
As farmers, workers, household managers, activists, leaders, and entrepreneurs, women are driving climate solutions at all levels. However, their efforts are hindered by gender-based vulnerabilities exacerbated by climate change. This summit aims to empower market women, representing over 60% of women, to be agents of change in mitigating and adapting to climate impacts.
Why This Summit Matters
Women and children are 14 times more likely to die in extreme weather disasters due to limited access to information and resources.
4 out of 5 people displaced by climate change are women and girls.
Market women represent over 60% of women and are uniquely positioned to drive grassroots climate solutions.
