Adaptation

Gender

This analysis aims to provide an examination of gender issues in agriculture, drawing on the experience of the European Union and international approaches to integrating gender equality into policy. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of the demographic situation and employment in Ukrainian agriculture, the gender pay gap, energy poverty, and women’s access to land use and land ownership. A separate section is devoted to gender differences in labor productivity and the role of women in implementing climate change adaptation measures. It should be noted that this report is one of the first to address the issues of gender, climate change, and agriculture. Given the limited statistical data available, this report does not claim to be comprehensive; instead, it outlines the problem and invites all stakeholders to engage in dialogue.
