The first research report of Women4Climate, realized in partnership with the UCL-City Leadership Lab (London), the University of California (Berkeley) and the Center Virchow-Villermé- La Sorbonne (Paris) will provide city officials with the best information available regarding the gendered impacts of climate change in the urban context and help them consider gender-specific solutions in climate action planning to implement inclusive climate action strategies.
