Climate Change does affect in a direct and indirect way human
health. As we are dealing with complex ecosystems, of which men and
women are just one part, the indirect effects are not easily seen and
understood. Even more difficult is the disaggregation by gender
aspects. Some women scientists, organisations, institutions and
networks have started to dedicate their work to gender questions,
strategies and action in Climate Change. Referring to the information
on the following pages many gendered questions still have to be put and
answered.
