Gender and Energy Track at COP30

November 3, 2025

At COP30, the Gender and Energy Compact, its champions governments and signatories will convene global stakeholders to advance gender-transformative climate and energy solutions. These events spotlight inclusive strategies, data-driven approaches, and multi-sector collaboration to accelerate equitable energy transitions—ensuring women’s empowerment is central to climate action and sustainable development goals. Women face disproportionate impacts from energy poverty and climate risks yet remain underrepresented in decision-making. A gender-responsive approach is essential to ensure inclusive, effective, and equitable energy transitions.

    Women remain underrepresented across the energy sector and are disproportionately affected by energy poverty, health risks, and limited access to finance and technology. Gender-blind policies further exacerbate these inequalities. It will highlight the economic and environmental benefits of diversity—such as improved profitability, innovation, and sustainability, and emphasize the need for gender-disaggregated data and indicators to track progress.
