This ADB report focuses on women as agents of change for resilient development, and argues for more investments in enhancing their capacities. Women-focused investments in climate and disaster resilience require tackling multiple vulnerabilities and discriminations that women and girls face in the near and longer-term. Such investments should be undertaken in all sectors—agriculture and livelihoods, urban, energy, water resources, finance, and social protection—and require political will, technical capacity.
