Abstract
The main goal of this special issue is to offer a room for
interdisciplinary and engaged research in global
environmental change (GEC), where gender plays a key
role in building resilience and adaptation pathways. In this
editorial paper, we explain the background setting, key
questions and core approaches of gender and feminist
research in vulnerability, resilience and adaptation to GEC.
Highlighting the interlinkages between gender and GEC,
we introduce the main contributions of the collection of 11
papers in this special issue. Nine empirical papers from
around the globe allow to understand how gendered
diversity in knowledge, institutions and everyday
practices matters in producing barriers and options for
achieving resilience and adaptive capacity in societies.
Additionally, two papers contribute to the theoretical
debate through a systematic review and an insight on the
relevance of intersectional framings within GEC research
and development programming.
