Session Description: Climate change exacerbates many of the challenges facing girls and women around the world, including barriers to education and economic opportunities. This session emphasizes the urgent need for innovative partnerships, investments, and initiatives that help girls and women become confident climate leaders and active contributors to the green economy, which is expected to add tens of millions of jobs over the next several decades. By investing in girls’ education and imparting digital, leadership and green skills, we can harness the potential of girls and women as leaders in climate action.
