Why are we doing this?

Although the link between gender and environmental issues has long been established globally and plays a significant role in shaping strategic decisions, this topic is only starting to gain recognition in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Italy. The connection between gender and environmental issues is crucial, as numerous studies (UN, WHO) indicate that women face increased risks associated with climate change. These impacts include higher vulnerability to disasters, limited access to resources, and specific barriers to recovery after crises.

According to UN statistics, women exhibit stronger environmentally concious behaviors than men, and their greater participation in politics and STEM fields has a proven positive effect on the implementation of sustainable policies. For example, the Human Rights and Climate Change Resolution (2008) demonstrated that gender-equal approaches to decision-making lead to more robust and sustainable environmental solutions in the long run. Yet, women remain underrepresented in these fields. Therefore, the project places particular emphasis on engaging young women in STEM disciplines.

The project also responds to the lack of relevant data in these states. While global studies show direct links between environmental issues and gender inequality, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Italy lack specific analyses and materials that are accessible and practically useful. Without sufficient data, it is impossible to develop strategies that respond to today's complex challenges effectively.

This project aims to bridge the gap between local and global approaches to ecofeminism and support sustainable change by connecting with international partner organizations, enabling us to share best practices and transfer acquired experiences to a broader context.
