Climate change has a disproportionate impact on women, particularly in disaster zones. In 2022, catastrophic floods in Sindh, Pakistan, left many pregnant women without access to clinics or skilled birth attendants. The affected area had a total of 650,000 pregnant women at the time. The floods highlighted the vulnerability of women in such situations. Climate change is linked to increased violence against women and poverty, which affects women more severely. Further information on the effects of climate change on women's health and human rights is available from the source, providing insight into the experiences of women in disaster-stricken areas.
