Promoting gender balance

"The meaningful inclusion of women in decision-making increases effectiveness and productivity, brings new perspectives and solutions to the table, unlocks greater resources, and strengthens efforts across all the three pillars of our work."   United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres

The COP invited Parties to make additional efforts to achieve the goal of gender balance in UNFCCC bodies (see decision 3/CP.23). The current gender composition of bodies as at 17 January 2019 is available here.
