The two advisors help us build our capacities and skills in the area of gender equality. For example, they have enabled us to foster and develop an initiative focused on institutional gender-climate dialogue, which is a direct result of this capacity building. This dialogue will allow the participants to know each other better, to share information, and to create a consensus and better consistency in the promotion of the cause.
The national gender advisors are also involved in the vulnerability studies that will inform the identification of the priority adaptation measures for the most vulnerable sectors. We are especially interested in understanding the impact of climate hazards on women and men in these sectors.
