Climate change resilience refers to the capacity to anticipate, absorb, cope with, adapt to, and transform systems in response to climate-related risks. The CGIAR Gender Equality Initiative has been developing a number of tools to help measure women’s resilience capacities in agri-food systems and assess the impact of socio-technical innovation bundles on both resilience and empowerment, and explore the intersection between these two domains.
