Brazil's Cross-cutting Strategy on Women and Climate (ETMC) reinforces the Brazilian government’s commitment to climate action that recognizes and addresses social and gender inequalities. By promoting the mainstreaming of a gender perspective across all dimensions of climate policy—from formulation to implementation and monitoring—the Strategy helps ensure that responses to the climate crisis also advance gender equity and social justice.
The overall objective of the Cross-Cutting Strategy on Women and Climate is to incorporate a gender perspective into Brazilian climate policy, ensuring that the mitigation and adaptation measures outlined in the Climate Plan also promote gender equality and strengthen the rights of women.
