2023 marks the midpoint in the implementation period of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction, as well as the penultimate year of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), Enhanced Lima Work Programme on Gender and its Gender Action Plan. At this pivotal moment, Data2X is updating our analysis of the state of gender data in the area of environment.
This report highlights where progress has been made toward filling gender and environment data gaps since 2019, what new data gaps have emerged as new issues have assumed greater attention or importance, and where key sources of gender and environment data can be found. Compared to Data2X’s 2019 report, we adopt a more focused view of the environment that explicitly centers climate change. The gender data gaps presented below explore different aspects of the environment and climate change, including: access to and control over environmental resources; responses to climate change; and the gendered impacts of climate change.
