Abstract:Gender equality is the yardstick of social civilization and progress，and it is an important goal to achieve sustainable development. It is more realistic to achieve gender equality in the field of climate change. Women are more vulnerable than men to the effect of climate change and women can also play an important role in climate change mitigation and adaptation. In this paper，we summarizes the progress of gender and climate change agenda under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change，evaluates the gap and deficiency of gender equality in climate action，and puts forward policy recommendations to promote gender balance in climate action based on the analysis of the progress in the field of gender equality in climate action of China.The issue of gender equality in climate action in China is mainly reflected in the fact that gender awareness of gender equality has not been fully popularized in China. The traditional concept of male preference is still an important factor affecting the protection of women’s status and rights. The imbalance of economic and social development between urban and rural areas and between regions has led to some restrictions on women’s access to climate action resources and information services in the poor areas of China’s central and western regions，and the proportion of women’ participation in climate action decision-making and management still need to be further improved. To this end，it is suggested to promote the formulation of policies and regulations related to gender and climate change；to further enhance the proportion of women’s participation in decision-making and management in response to climate change and disaster prevention and reduction；and to strengthen relevant training and capacity-building for enhancing women’s participation in climate action.
