Short Summary |
Understanding and integrating gender issues into
debates, policy making and policy implementation is key to a more
comprehensive approach to climate protection. As part of a European
Commission project, ten cities in Finland, Sweden, Germany and Italy
worked together to identify tools, processes and procedures that can
contribute to promoting and supporting women in decision-making positions
relevant to climate protection. Their aim is to offer ideas and suggestions
to individual persons, departments and whole municipalities. The toolkit
consists of 4 sections: Data-Facts-Arguments, which includes findings
and results of the 'Climate for Change' project and background information
from all over Europe; Tools for Promoting Women in Management and
Executive Positions, consisting of implementation guidelines, instructions
and suggestions as well as a variety of examples; a Gender Checklist
helping individuals to look at their department from a gender perspective;
and some leaflets and posters that can be distributed or displayed
to promote awareness of the issue. The publication is available in
English, German and Italian from

The Tools and Instruments section and the Gender Checklist are also
available in Finnish and Swedish on the same site. |
