At the 28th session of the Conference of the Parties (COP28) in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates, the UN launched a new partnership endorsed by 68 countries, focused on reducing climate change’s impact on women. This initiative aligns with UN gender-responsive strategies, aiming to reduce job and income losses among women during the green transition. The partnership, introduced in a high-level dialogue, encompasses commitments to gender-specific data, finance, and equal opportunities, which the signatory countries will implement and review at COP31 in three years.
