About the event
As the energy transition accelerates, the impacts of transition minerals extraction and fossil fuel phase-down are unevenly distributed, often disproportionately affecting women and marginalised communities in resource-rich countries. These women’s lived realities must be centred in global climate and energy transition negotiations and processes.
Diving into examples from resource producer countries including Zambia and Colombia, and gathering civil society, governance institutions, and the private sector, this session during London Climate Action Week will explored the current progress and gaps in gender-responsive resource governance, and the upcoming global advocacy opportunities where we can collectively push for a gender-just energy transition.
