Climate change impacts are being felt across sectors in all regions of the world, and adaptation projects are being implemented to reduce climate risks and existing vulnerabilities. Climate adaptation actions also have significant synergies and tradeoffs with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including SDG 5 on gender equality. Questions are increasingly being raised about the gendered and climate justice implications of different adaptation options. This paper investigates if reported climate change adaptation actions are contributing to advancing the goal of gender equality (SDG 5) or not. It focuses on linkages between individual targets of SDG 5 and climate change adaptation actions for nine major sectors where transformative climate actions are envisaged. The assessment is based on evidence of adaptation actions documented in 319 relevant research publications published during 2014–2020. Positive links to nine targets under SDG 5 are found in adaptation actions that are consciously designed to advance gender equality. However, in four sectors—ocean and coastal ecosystems; mountain ecosystems; poverty, livelihood, sustainable development; and industrial system transitions, we find more negative links than positive links. For adaptation actions to have positive impacts on gender equality, gender-focused targets must be intentionally brought in at the prioritisation, designing, planning, and implementation stages. An SDG 5+ approach, which takes into consideration intersectionality and gender aspects beyond women alone, can help adaptation actions move towards meeting gender equality and other climate justice goals. This reflexive approach is especially critical now, as we approach the mid-point in the timeline for achieving the SDGs.

气候变化适应方案与性别平等之间的协同作用和权衡:全球文献综述

世界所有地区的各个部门都感受到了气候变化的影响,并且正在实施适应项目以减少气候风险和现有的脆弱性。气候适应行动还与可持续发展目标 (SDG) 具有显着的协同作用和权衡取舍,包括关于性别平等的可持续发展目标 5。关于不同适应方案的性别和气候正义影响的问题越来越多。本文调查报告的气候变化适应行动是否有助于推进性别平等目标(SDG 5)。它侧重于可持续发展目标 5 的各个具体目标与设想变革性气候行动的九个主要部门的气候变化适应行动之间的联系。该评估基于 2014-2020 年间发表的 319 份相关研究出版物中记录的适应行动证据。在有意识地设计以促进性别平等的适应行动中,发现与可持续发展目标 5 下的九个具体目标的积极联系。然而,在四个部门——海洋和沿海生态系统;山地生态系统;贫困、生计、可持续发展;和产业体系转型,我们发现负面联系多于正面联系。为了使适应行动对性别平等产生积极影响,必须在优先排序、设计、规划和实施阶段有意引入以性别为重点的目标。SDG 5+ 方法,考虑到女性以外的交叉性和性别方面,可以帮助适应行动朝着实现性别平等和其他气候正义目标迈进。这种反思性方法现在尤其重要,因为我们接近实现可持续发展目标时间表的中点。
