Beyond Inclusion: Women’s Leadership in Climate Justice

In this compelling episode of InterLinked, we explore the intersection of climate justice and women’s economic agency, focusing on how policies can move beyond inclusion to foster meaningful leadership. Shivali Yadav is joined by Ms. Mamta Borgoyary, a development sector leader with extensive experience in climate resilience, gender equity, and sustainable livelihoods.Through an insightful discussion, we examine the structural barriers preventing women from leading climate action, the pitfalls of tokenistic inclusion, and the need for policies that empower women as decision-makers rather than passive beneficiaries. Ms. Borgoyary shares her experiences working with indigenous and rural communities, shedding light on how women’s leadership can drive innovative, localized climate solutions.From climate financing gaps to the role of self-help groups in fostering economic resilience, we discuss how grassroots movements are reclaiming agency, why representation is not enough, and the urgent need for intersectional approaches in climate governance.Join us for a thought-provoking conversation that challenges conventional climate policies and highlights the power of women-led solutions in building a just and sustainable future.
