Speaker of the National Assembly of Zambia, Right Honourable Nelly B K Mutti, MP, FAPRA has said despite steady progress towards greater gender sensitivity in the current climate finance regime, many existing mitigation and adaptation financing schemes need to deliver on women’s empowerment by systematically and effectively linking gender and climate finance. She noted that mitigation activities and associated financing have tended to focus more on large-scale energy efficiency and renewable energy projects, in which women are usually left out.
