Women's increased access to climate investments
Episode 10
Friday, 7 August, 2020
For this last interview of our podcast series, I am delighted to receive Evelyne Batamuliza to talk about women’s access to climate finance. We discuss the fact that gender equality is now well embedded in international climate frameworks and funds, but there is still very limited funding reaching women and women’s organizations. She calls for deliberate efforts to fill this gap, making sure that women are at the decision-making table when it comes to climate actions and climate finance at global and national level, and translating commitments into concrete mechanisms and actions that put more resources into the hands of women at the local level.Evelyne Batamuliza currently serves as an Executive Committee Member of the Adaptation Benefit Mechanisms Initiative of the African Development Bank. Previously she worked as UNDP’s Advisor in the Asia Pacific Region for the Programme Strengthening Governance of Climate Change Finance. Evelyne has also an extensive career in post-conflict reconstruction, and was engaged in various global and regional initiatives for peace and reconciliation and to support women’s political participation in Africa.
