The 58th session of the Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technological Advice and the Subsidiary Body for Implementation (SB 58) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) will take place at the World Conference Center Bonn (WCCB) in Bonn, Germany, from June 5 -15, 2023.

COP27 closed with a breakthrough agreement to provide loss and damage funding for vulnerable countries hit hard by floods, droughts, and other climate disasters. But how can we make sure that women, the elderly, youth, and other marginalized groups benefit from such funding? The African Women’s Development and Communication Network – FEMNET (FEMNET), the International Food Policy Research Institute’s Gender, Climate and Nutrition Integration Initiative and other partners will present institutions, tools and actions that are needed to ensure that support reaches the most vulnerable populations.
