Climate Resilient Development for Agriculture and Pathways for Gender Inclusivity

Abstract

This study introduces a new concept and framework called Climate Resilient Development for Agriculture (CRDA). Unlike Climate Resilient Agriculture (CRA), which focuses solely on adjusting farming practices to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and maintain agricultural production in the face of climate change, CRDA takes a more comprehensive approach by integrating a development perspective. Its goal is to leverage synergies among actions, programs, and policies to achieve climate change mitigation, adaptation, and sustainable development goals while also addressing climate change-induced loss and damage. The CRDA framework outlines potential pathways leading to either high or low CRDA futures and emphasizes the importance of gender equality in its structure. Additionally, the study highlights the potential for actions under the CRDA framework to either exacerbate or mitigate gender disparities and proposes five crucial actions that can contribute to a gender-inclusive and climate-resilient future for the agriculture sector.
