Climate change, gender equality and human rights in Asia: Regional review and promising practices
January 2020
Livelihoods across Asia are at risk due both to climate change and the devastating pandemic, and so is the fulfilment and enjoyment of human rights - especially those of women, who are at the frontlines or are otherwise in vulnerable positions.

Ranging from agriculture to education, the report guides us through different livelihood sectors, applying a human rights lens and providing recommendations for policy actors at different levels.
