Abstract

This article examines how climate change affects women's rights to education, equality, health care and dignity. It is essential that women are given the opportunity to exercise their fundamental rights, that discrimination against them is eliminated, that they are provided with adequate protection from the impacts of climate change, and that they are given more opportunities to participate in the development of policies that will reduce the impacts of climate change.
