<p class="MsoNormal">Dear all,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">CARE International in Vietnam, UN Women Viet Nam and GIZ are happy to present their most recent collaborative effort:
<b>‘Making It Count: Integrating Gender and Climate Change: A practical how-to guide’</b>, which can be downloaded as an interactive PDF (in both Vietnamese and English) here:
<a href="http://careclimatechange.org/tool-kits/making-it-count-integrating-gender/">
http://careclimatechange.org/tool-kits/making-it-count-integrating-gender/</a> <o:p>
</o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Climate change affects women and men differently.</b> Unequal access to resources, rights and opportunities between women and men means that they also experience the impacts of climate change and disasters in different and unequal ways.
To ignore these inequalities is to ignore a key factor in the success or failure of our work. Women play an essential role in tackling the climate change challenge. They are demonstrating innovative ways to adapt to the effects of climate change and build
resilient societies, and are taking action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by leading initiatives that put forward new solutions to dealing with climate change. If we can address and transform gender inequalities through climate change and disaster risk
reduction initiatives, then we not only promote the equal rights of women but also multiply the sustainable impact of climate-related activities.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>‘Making It Count’ offers practical questions, actions, tools and resources for integrating gender into climate change and disaster risk reduction interventions.
</b>It is designed to be an easily accessible entry point for practitioners (not to replace more in-depth guidelines), and was created through several consultations with multiple stakeholders, including members of Vietnam’s Climate Change Working Group and
other gender and climate change experts. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Today CARE in Vietnam also releases our first ‘Learning Series’ – short publications (which may evolve into online content instead) which capture learning from CARE in Vietnam’s work, for the purpose of knowledge sharing, fundraising, advocacy
etc. Issue 1, <b>‘Win-Win Results: Gender Equality in Climate Change Programming’</b> highlights CARE’s key learnings from various projects which tackle the impacts of climate change. It culminates in a framework for gender transformative adaptation in Vietnam,
which was developed from CARE’s Community Based Adaptation Framework and CARE’s Women’s Empowerment Framework. ‘Win-Win Results’ can also be downloaded in interactive PDF format here:
