Abstract

Women's limited voice in governance and decision-making impedes inclusive climate resilience. This scoping review identifies barriers that hamper women's participation in AFS decision-making and assesses interventions that amplify their voice and agency. Drawing on two analytical frameworks—the women's empowerment in AFS governance framework (Ragasa et al., 2022) and the Reach-Benefit-Empower-Transform (RBET) framework (Quisumbing et al., 2023)—we synthesize evidence from 47 studies in the Global South. Barriers are found in two domains: access to climate-relevant agricultural innovations and exclusion from local governance processes. Best practices include gender-responsive extension, social innovations such as self-help groups and digital tools, and organizational strategies including gender budgeting and men's engagement. We conclude that advancing women's leadership in AFS governance requires multi-level interventions that address structural, sociocultural, and informational inequities.

管理农业粮食系统以促进气候适应能力和性别包容性：对证据的战略审查

妇女在治理和决策中的发言权有限，阻碍了包容性的气候适应能力。这项范围审查确定了妨碍妇女参与AFS决策的障碍，并评估了扩大她们的发言权和代理权的干预措施。利用两个分析框架——AFS治理框架中的妇女赋权（Ragasa et al., 2022）和达到-受益-赋权-转型（RBET）框架（Quisumbing et al., 2023）——我们综合了来自全球南方的47项研究的证据。障碍存在于两个领域：获得与气候有关的农业创新和被排除在地方治理进程之外。最佳做法包括促进性别平等的推广、自助团体和数字工具等社会创新，以及包括性别预算和男性参与在内的组织战略。我们的结论是，提高妇女在AFS治理中的领导地位需要多层次的干预措施，以解决结构、社会文化和信息不平等问题。

期刊介绍： Environmental Development provides a future oriented, pro-active, authoritative source of information and learning for researchers, postgraduate students, policymakers, and managers, and bridges the gap between fundamental research and the application in management and policy practices. It stimulates the exchange and coupling of traditional scientific knowledge on the environment, with the experiential knowledge among decision makers and other stakeholders and also connects natural sciences and social and behavioral sciences. Environmental Development includes and promotes scientific work from the non-western world, and also strengthens the collaboration between the developed and developing world. Further it links environmental research to broader issues of economic and social-cultural developments, and is intended to shorten the delays between research and publication, while ensuring thorough peer review. Environmental Development also creates a forum for transnational communication, discussion and global action. Environmental Development is open to a broad range of disciplines and authors. The journal welcomes, in particular, contributions from a younger generation of researchers, and papers expanding the frontiers of environmental sciences, pointing at new directions and innovative answers. All submissions to Environmental Development are reviewed using the general criteria of quality, originality, precision, importance of topic and insights, clarity of exposition, which are in keeping with the journal''s aims and scope.
