A Green and Gender-equal Nordic Region

The Nordic countries are dedicated to working towards carbon neutral and inclusive societies. With this joint commitment, the Nordic Council of Ministers will advance learning and advocacy on how climate action is critically strengthened by gender equality. Embedding a gender perspective in Nordic climate action is a prerequisite for reaching the Nordic vision of becoming the most sustainable and integrated region in the world by 2030. The commitment joins Generation Equality convened by UN Women. It is part of Feminist Action for Climate Justice, one of six Action Coalitions, bringing together governments, corporations, civil society, and change makers on a journey to achieve irreversible progress towards gender equality.
