¿Por qué asistir a esta sesión?
This session seeks to magnify the voice of women and showcase their experience to progress gender equity.

HideDescripción
Women’s empowerment can go a long way to solving some of today’s most pressing environmental and social challenges. Evidence shows that empowering women can have a multiplier effect, generating innovation, economic growth, supporting environmental conservation and social progress. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development has given countries a clear mandate to integrate gender in national efforts to develop sustainably. This session examines the local to global shifts necessary for gender equality to take hold. Drawing on examples from Asia, Latin America and Europe, we will explore the role of women in conservation and natural resources management, identifying persistent barriers and sharing success stories of gender responsive action that is catalysing change. The event will also discuss solutions for scaling up women’s empowerment in sustainable development and for the post-2020 period, with a focus on opportunities under the post-2020 global biodiversity framework.
