Presentation on women’s involvement in climate change policymaking in Nepal
On 19 May, a team of researchers from PHASE Nepal visited IGSD to present their British Academy-funded WeSHAPE project.
The WeSHAPE project aims to understand and strengthen the role of women in climate change and health-related policymaking in Nepal.
Barsha Rijal, Jyoti Lamichhane, Pratistha Acharya, Samikshya Nepal and Sujata Adhikari outlined the team’s ongoing work, which has included the use of
creative methodologies such as storytelling, photovoice, and participatory policy-making workshops to capture the lived experiences of women and translate them into actionable strategies for gender-sensitive governance.
