Research thrives when it is open to as many different voices as possible. Women are underrepresented in science, comprising less than 30% of researchers worldwide. 👩‍💻

This #IWD2023, let's bridge the gap and promote #WomenInScience 👇 https://t.co/rYgqRlIo5g

Targeted action on gender equality leads to transformative & sustainable biodiversity outcomes. 🌏🌸

UNEP-WCMC with partners worked on a paper stressing the need for better financing to ensure the gender-responsive implementation of GBF ➡️ https://t.co/EpvwWWC2ah

#IWD2023 💁‍♀️

[UNEP-WCMC @unepwcmc]

In a side event hosted by UNEP-WCMC at #COP15, we explored options to help address the gaps in delivering on biodiversity, climate, and gender commitments 🙋‍♀️

Here are examples illustrating the multiple benefits of gender inclusivity in biodiversity 👇 https://t.co/jlDw7FmzaC

Women are agents of transformational change, and they have unique knowledge and responsibilities in the sustainable use and conservation of biodiversity. 👩‍🌾

Gender-responsive policies can ensure that women are able to equally benefit from the sustainable use of biodiversity and fulfill their potential as environmental custodians.

What's stopping faster government action on climate? In part, the fear of being sued by fossil companies over 'lost profits' if they are no longer permitted to drill, mine & destroy. The ISDS rules literally privilege corporate power over life on earth. https://t.co/a5SaAbuSiC
