Women and Climate Change Act: Global Support and Protection
This act aims to assist women globally who are particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change, such as droughts and floods. It establishes a special working group and a coordinator to better plan actions and support women in adapting to new conditions, as well as involving them in climate decision-making processes.
