IUCN Report Released: The Art of Implementation: Gender Strategies Transforming National and Regional Climate Change Decision Making

This month, the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN), "the world’s oldest and largest global environmental organization," released a report titled, The Art of Implementation: Gender Strategies Transforming National and Regional Climate Change Decision Making (2013). The 124-page report is available here, as a downloadable pdf. According to the abstract,
This publication shares IUCN's experiences in developing the world's first gender-responsive national strategies and roadmaps on climate change. Different sections outline steps and elements of creating a climate change gender action plan (ccGAP) or REDD+ roadmap; present principles behind the strategies and what has worked best; detail case studies highlighting sectors that demonstrate the gender dimensions of climate change in different national contexts; and provide recommendations on how to move forward.
