Guidance Note – Integrating Climate Change into National Action Plans for Women, Peace and Security

This UN Women Guidance Note provides practical, evidence-based guidance on integrating climate change into National Action Plans (NAPs) on Women, Peace and Security (WPS). Climate change is a major driver of conflict and insecurity in different contexts, and NAPs offer key benefits in addressing the challenges and opportunities it presents for peace and security. A first of its kind, this Guidance Note focuses on the unique challenges and solutions in the Asia-Pacific region while incorporating comparative experiences and models from other regions to provide broader insights that can be adapted locally.
