GCAN FRAMEWORK

The GCAN framework is designed to illustrate the linkages among climate change, gender, and nutrition across multiple scales and time horizons. It helps identify entry points for policies, technologies, and institutions that enhance synergies and reduce trade-offs across the three development goals of nutrition, women’s empowerment, and resilience to climate change.

To tailor objectives and plans at national and sub-national levels, decision-makers and practitioners need to assess the degree to which proposed policies, interventions, and investment meet these three objectives and prioritize accordingly.

The framework was developed based on a review of the literature and with input from a variety of stakeholders. It is used to frame GCAN’s engagements with stakeholders and to guide our research at the climate change-gender-nutrition nexus.
