Conventions.
Gender Perspectives on the Conventions on Biodiversity, Climate Change
and Desertification
Abstract:
The paper provides a gender-sensitive perspective on the three Rio
Conventions on Biodiversity, Climate Change, and Desertification. First,
the Rio conventions are placed in their historical context and their
administrative and financial framework. Secondly, the main gender issues
relevant to the three conventions are exposed. A comparative overview of
the level of gender mainstreaming in each of the international
instruments relating to the Rio Conventions at study here is given. The
essay concludes with a review of a few key issues in convention
implementation, in relationship with gender.
