COP28 side event – Bridging Gender Gaps in NDC implementation: lessons learned from community-led climate technology solutions

To achieve the Paris Agreement goal, we must adopt feminist approaches to implement NDCs that address the multiple intersecting climate, biodiversity, and economic crises.  This event will facilitate a dialogue among governments, UNFCCC bodies, international and grassroots organizations to learn from the experiences of community-led climate technology initiatives that can help bridge gender gaps in climate action.  

The objectives of the session are:

• To support parties and stakeholders in understanding how integrating just transition, gender equality, and human rights principles can help improve their NDC implementation. 
• To underline the need to consider the experiences and knowledge of local, indigenous, and feminist organizations in the design and implementation of climate technologies.
• To inform decision-making bodies and parties on the cross-cutting benefits of strengthening gender responsiveness mechanisms in climate technologies and policies
