Network
GenderCC-listserve
The wider network of GenderCC is represented by the list serve (currently over 450 members), which also includes individuals and organisations who are not formally GenderCC members. Beyond that group, there are others who are serviced with information and networking via the website, phone conversations, meetings at UNFCCC conferences, etc.
The gender_cc list serve is dedicated to information exchange and networking among those committed to gender justice in climate change, on topics relating to gender and climate change issues, women's rights, gender relations and gender justice in the context of climate change and climate related policy making.
We are also aiming to grow the wider network, and continue to reach out, inviting people to join the list serve, visit the website, and get in touch with us at the international secretariat, via the Focal Points, and all other members of the SG and GenderCC as a whole.
