Over these three intensive days, participants delved into strategies to ensure messaging, reports and trainings are gender inclusive and free from gender bias. This training is part of our ongoing commitment to building capacity of Women in climate action to foster equity in climate and science communication.
As trainers and consultants, the skills acquired will be instrumental in enhancing our training sessions and workshops. By integrating gender-sensitive communication principles, we aim to create a more inclusive learning environment for communities and organizations we work with. This approach aligns seamlessly with our mission to advocate for climate action that considers the unique impacts of environmental challenges on women and marginalized groups.
