The majority of justice seekers worldwide resolve their problems through customary and informal justice (CIJ) systems. Women constitute the largest group of users of CIJ systems for diverse reasons and rely on them for resolution of their justice problems. Women are not only users of CIJ systems, but also providers of justice within those systems. Women’s participation and leadership in CIJ systems is widespread, though their various roles and contributions are often under-recognised.

Advancing Gender-Responsive Climate Action: Policy Brief Reveals Progress and Challenges | UNFCCC
UN Climate Change News, 20 November 2023 – A recent policy brief from UN Climate Change underscores the increased integration of gender considerations in climate change adaptation plans across the globe. It reveals not only growing acknowledgment of the unique vulnerabilities women face amidst the climate crisis, but also growing recognition of women’s key contributions to effective adaptation.
The brief highlights a paradigm shift in the narrative on gender and climate change. While the specific vulnerabilities of women to climate impacts have intensified, there is also greater awareness of women’s unique strengths and crucial roles in adaptation efforts.
