Abstract

Climate change is occurring in a rapidly changing environment, which threatens to exacerbate pre-existing gender-based health inequities in India. Even the slightest variations in the weather and the environment have the potential to disturb the delicate hormonal balance that regulates the menstrual cycle. To lessen the negative effects of climate change, development, and catastrophe risk reduction on public health, a gendered perspective should be included in the policy frameworks. Mitigating climate risks requires the cooperation of several sectors, advances in data collection, the monitoring of gender-specific targets, and the equal engagement of stakeholders. Policy interventions for adaptation and mitigation of climate change may be bolstered by women's empowerment as social change agents.
