Environment and gender are cross-cutting issues that need to be addressed jointly to advance environmental sustainability and address existing inequalities. Mainstreaming gender in the ENR sector is important, as men and women have differential opportunities in accessing natural resources and related technology and information. Thus women and men have different skills, experiences and knowledge that can help inform environmental and climate change policies for poverty reduction. Studies have shown that increasing women’s access to and control over natural resources in development planning and budgeting can have a positive impact on sustainability, economic growth and poverty reduction (FAO 2011b).
