Women generally experience limited agency or decision-making power, restricted mobility, and limited access to financial resources. They face numerous challenges, including child marriage, domestic violence, and the burden of unpaid domestic work as well as responsibilities related to child and elder care. Also, women, on average, enjoy only three-fourths of the legal rights pertaining to economic opportunities that men possess. With climate change SDG 13, the challenges will intensify. Although climate change affects all segments of society, its impact can vary, often exacerbating existing inequalities. Gender disparities that already exist can hinder women's capacity to adapt to weather-related disturbances. Moreover, as weather events become more frequent and severe, gender inequalities have the potential to not only persist but also escalate. The first example below reports existing gender inequalities in domestic work and shows how climate change is making things worse.
