Data Insights: GCT in Action

Dive into data analysis and new insights to understand women's participation in climate negotiations and how gender shows up in climate decisions.

Gender Action Plan Resources

During COP25 Party delegations adopted the enhanced Lima work programme on gender and its gender action plan.

This tool pulls together resources from the GCT resource library that are related to each of the activities under the GAP’s five priority areas. These resources may be case studies, reports, or other documents, webinars, or webpages that can shed light on the current and future implementation of the activity and any recommendations or challenges.  The purpose of this resource list is to combine efforts to track programmatic work done in relation to each activity, and you can submit a resource for inclusion in the GCT resources and in this tool using the Become a GCT form.

To interact with this tool, drop down from each priority to see its activities and then click each activity to see the relevant resources appear below!
