Purpose
This webinar will start building a conversation on how to promote a stronger focus on gender equality in the carbon markets as a major component of the flow of climate finance to the global South.
This will be an informal session to bring interested individuals and organisations together for a discussion to explore:
- Why do the voluntary carbon markets matter for gender equality?
- What are the key barriers blocking progress on integrating gender equality into the carbon market ecosystem?
- What are the key interventions that we should be making for most influence and impact?
- What are the priority messages that we want to feed back to the TSVCM through the consultation exercise?

Format
The session will be hosted by Jeannette Gurung of WOCAN in association with Sue Phillips of Gender Tech Enterprises. Jeannette and Sue will kick off the session with their own experiences of engaging with voluntary carbon markets and the current work of the Task Force. WOCAN will also be sharing the early findings of their survey on the role of women in the environmental market’s ecosystem. These short presentations will be followed by discussion drawing on participants own experiences and questions and concluding with a drawing together on next steps.
