The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) brings together thousands of experts to review relevant scientific literature and produce the most comprehensive state-of-the-knowledge reports on climate change, with a specific report focusing on adaptation. The most recent iteration of this, the Sixth Assessment Report of the IPCC - Working Group II on Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability (WG II report), includes more references to gender, equity, and justice than any previous IPCC report, reflecting the importance of incorporating these considerations in climate change adaptation planning and action.
This comic supports communication of this essential knowledge to a wider range of actors. Based on a systematic review of the WG II report, the report summarized the key messages on gender, equity, and justice. Working with an advisory group of advocates and practitioners, the report explored how to illustrate and explain these messages in a relevant and accessible way, putting them in the context of collaborators' experiences living and working in different parts of Africa. The report also presents a set of discussion questions designed for educators and trainers to use the comic as a basis for learning about these issues.
