International Development and Diplomacy Series: Gender Equality and the Gendered Implications of Climate Change
Episode 1: On Gender Equality and the Gendered Implications of Climate Change
This episode brings together two of UNA-Canada’s International Youth Internship Programme’s (IYIP) recent alumni. Ayak Wel, who interned with WFP Philippines as their Gender Equality intern, and Rayane Chbeir, who interned with UNCDF Fiji as their Inclusive Insurance intern. With facilitation from the IYIP Project Officer Megan McGeough, the speakers explore the gendered implications and effects of climate change, both in the Philippines and in Fiji. A particular focus is made to food security, and the impacts that climate disasters have on food insecurity, as well as the integration of female small- agricultural business owners into the market within Fiji through digital, financial inclusion. Alumni also reflect on their internship journey, and discuss critiques and queries on the modern, westernized system of international development, and the need to move towards regional partnerships.

Épisode 1 : L'égalité des sexes et les répercussions des changements climatiques sur les hommes et les femmes
Cet épisode réunit deux anciens stagiaires du Programme de stages internationaux pour les jeunes (PSIJ) de l'ACNU. Ayak Wel, qui a fait un stage au PAM Philippines en tant que stagiaire sur l'égalité des sexes, et Rayane Chbeir, qui a fait un stage au FENU à Fidji en tant que stagiaire sur les assurances inclusives. Avec l'aide de Megan McGeough, responsable de projets pour PSIJ, les intervenants explorent les implications et les effets du changement climatique sur les hommes et les femmes, tant aux Philippines qu'à Fidji. Une attention particulière est accordée à la sécurité alimentaire et aux impacts des catastrophes climatiques sur l'insécurité alimentaire, ainsi qu'à l'intégration des femmes propriétaires de petites entreprises agricoles sur le marché fidjien grâce à l'inclusion financière numérique. Les anciens stagiaires se penchent également sur leur parcours de stage et discutent des critiques et des questions relatives au système moderne et occidental de développement international, ainsi que de la nécessité d'évoluer vers des partenariats régionaux.
