  • Gender dimensions of adaptive capacity and adaptation responses to climate shocks in rural households

    Open AccessSarah Redicker, Maria Franco Gavonel et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2025

    In agrarian economies, household gender roles and demographic structure influence how families respond to climate shocks, affecting investment decisions, risk-spreading strategies, and all choices of adaptation options and adaptive capacity investments.

The result shows that 49.3% of rural women had adequate knowledge about HIV/AIDS compared with 74.7% of urban women. About three-fourths (72.1%) of the rural…
