This publication aims to provide concrete examples and experiences from the Canada-UNDP Climate Change Adaptation Facility (CCAF) projects implemented in Cabo, Verde, Cambodia, Haiti, Mali, Niger and Sudan. The projects made a concerted and explicit effort to take a gender-responsive approach to all adaptation activities. This is complemented by the Facility’s global component, which provides technical support, encourages knowledge exchange, and undertakes in-depth analysis of the experiences these countries have had in gender-responsive approaches. This report highlights specific inputs, resources and partnerships needed to design and implement gender-responsive approaches. The authors hope to develop a better understanding of how gender-responsive approaches can be cost-effective and lead to greater adaptation impact.
