Background:
The Pacific Gender and Climate Change Toolkit has been developed as a response to needs
expressed by colleagues at the national and regional level for simple tools that could help them think
about how to integrate gender in their programme.
It is designed to support climate change practitioners working in national governments, nongovernmental organisations, regional and international organisations in the region to integrate
gender into their programmes and projects.
It is structured as follows:

Module 1: Introduction – provides a general overview of some of the main links between gender and
climate change

Module 2: Provides case studies to illustrate some gender considerations in specific development
sectors. The Structure of this module is as such:


Module 2.1 : Food Security

Module 2.2: Water

Module 2.3: Energy

Module 2.4: Disaster risk reduction
Module 3: Integrating gender as part of the climate risk mainstreaming process is aimed as providing
practitioners with support to integrate gender through of the programme and project cycle and is
aligned to SPREP’s “Mainstreaming guide for climate change adaptation in the Pacific”

Annexes – which contains a glossary and additional resources for further reading.

Tools – contains a series of tools that may be of use at different phases of the programme or project
cycle to better consider and integrate gender throughout the phases.

Checklists – a general checklist to screen projects / programmes from a gender perspective and a
specific one for each thematic sector in Module 2.
The toolkit was developed by a core team including SPC, SPREP, UNDP, UN Women and GIZ and based on
experiences and interviews gathered with many people including climate change and disaster risk
management practitioners.
