🤝🌎 Today, to mark the 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀, we highlight the urgent need for inclusive climate resilience and building equitable societies. The Community Resilience Partnership Program (CRPP), led by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) with the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) and the Huairou Commission, co-financed by NDF, focuses on locally led and inclusive climate action across Asia and the Pacific and addresses the challenges connected to climate change, poverty and gender. 📋 As part of the programme, the Huairou Commission and YAKKUM Emergency Unit worked with local women and persons with disabilities in Indonesia’s Gunungkidul district to conduct a locally-led study, mapping vulnerabilities of various groups. This approach enables women’s groups to design inclusive resilience practices that address the priorities of community members with vulnerabilities – and ensures leaving no one behind. The study revealed that elderly women and widows with disabilities face extreme socio-economic and climate risks. Through #CRPP, the project aims to integrate disability inclusion into climate resilience, supporting locally-led planning and women’s leadership in just environmental governance. 🌱 💡On this day, let’s commit to inclusive climate action.
