Gender-based vulnerabilities to climate change in Cambodia

Women are often disproportionately affected by climate change - and gender norms and societal barriers make this more acute. Read our participatory research to understand how.

Publication date: Autumn 2020

Overview:

Women are often disproportionately affected by the impacts of climate change, and deep-rooted gender norms, social and societal barriers can make this more difficult. 大象传媒 Media Action was commissioned by UN Women Cambodia as part of the EmPower: Women for Climate-Resilient Societies project to conduct this in-depth participatory research to understand how women and men are impacted by climate change, what actions they are taking to respond, and how gender roles and norms are influencing their response.

Conducted across the Tonle Sap and Coastal regions of Cambodia throughout 2020, our researchers found that while men and women are experiencing the same impacts, how they are able to respond varies.

This research was funded by UN Women and the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency.
