Technologies are not gender neutral, and tackling climate change demands that everyone's experience and skills are utilized. Therefore climate technology action needs to ensure that women and men are both engaged in decision-making processes, development and use of technologies, and benefit from their outcomes. Women commonly face higher risks and greater burdens from the impacts of climate change, and their needs must be addressed to ensure effective and equitable climate change actions. Women also bring new perspectives and innovations in identifying and implementing solutions. Below you will find gender-related publications, partners, CTCN technical assistance, technologies and other information for exploring the topic of gender and climate change solutions further.

Suriname is already experiencing the impacts of climate variability and change, manifesting in increased average atmospheric temperatures, diminished annual rainfall, and the potential escalation in the intensity of tropical storms. The country relies heavily on groundwater resources for its drinking water supply, alongside surface water and direct rainfall. However, with the burgeoning economy, particularly in the tourism and agriculture sectors, water demand is projected to double over the next decade.
