Curious about how the climate crisis is affecting women and marginalised groups in Nepal—and what they need in terms of accessible, gender-responsive climate finance? Want to learn more and discuss with us on what is currently happening on gender equality and finance at the global level, and how these conversations are shaping the international climate negotiations this year at the climate summit in Brazil?
 
Join us for an insightful lunch lecture hosted by WO=MEN Dutch Gender Platform in collaboration with Zurich Climate Resilience Alliance. In this session we will explore the urgent need for gender-transformative climate finance that truly works for women and marginalised groups on the frontlines of the climate crisis in Nepal. Learn more from concrete examples from the ground!
 
Speakers:

• Pratap Maharjan, Programme Manager for the Zurich Climate Resilience Alliance in Nepal.
• Barbara Jacobson, Senior Climate Advocacy Advisor at the Zurich Alliance, based in the Netherlands, & currently Dutch NGO UNFCCC representative for COP30.
