Women are still widely under-represented in decision-making at all levels, in the household, in businesses, and in the public sphere.
W+ project developers can evaluate how projects result in increased decision-making roles for #women within a project, household or community.
Today, the Taskforce on Scaling Voluntary Carbon Markets (TSVCM) is presented at Davos Global 2021.
On this occasion WOCAN and the W+ Advisory Council respond with their ideas on ‘how the scaling of voluntary carbon markets can amplify gender equality impacts’ #DavosAgenda #Sdg5
