Gender-Responsive Climate Governance and the Role of Women Leaders is a new IFC report designed to enhance the private sector’s ability to develop more effective gender-inclusive climate governance, strategies, and actions. The report focuses specifically on emerging market and developing economies (EMDEs) and looks at underexplored aspects of the climate-gender nexus: whether EMDE companies have formalized policies and strategies governing their climate action, whether they take integrated action on climate and gender, and whether the presence of women in the senior leadership of these companies serves as a positive influence to drive gender-responsive climate governance.
