Climate change is not a gender-neutral phenomenon, nor does it affect all sections of society equally. The impacts of climate change intersect with existing vulnerabilities such as gender, age, class, and geography, making women and children disproportionately exposed to its adverse consequences. When analyzing the impacts of climate change on women and children, it is crucial to recognize the social, economic, and cultural structures that amplify their vulnerability. From health consequences and displacement to livelihood insecurity and psychosocial distress, the experiences of women and children highlight how climate change deepens inequality and perpetuates cycles of poverty and marginalization. Women often bear the primary responsibility for household management, caregiving, food security, and water collection. Climate change exacerbates these roles. For instance, prolonged droughts reduce access to clean water, forcing women and girls to walk longer distances to fetch it, increasing their workload and exposure to physical exhaustion, harassment, and violence. In many rural regions, women are directly dependent on natural resources for livelihood activities such as agriculture, fisheries, and livestock rearing. Erratic rainfall patterns, flooding, and soil degradation undermine crop yields, leaving women struggling to ensure food security for their families. Limited access to land rights, credit, agricultural training, and decision-making power restricts their ability to adapt effectively. Thus, climate-induced resource scarcity heightens women’s unpaid labor burden and traps them in cycles of poverty. Health impacts are also gendered. Women, particularly pregnant and lactating mothers, are highly susceptible to climate-related health risks such as malnutrition, vector-borne diseases, and waterborne illnesses. Malnutrition among women translates into higher maternal mortality rates, complications during childbirth, and low birth weights, affecting both women and their children. Moreover, indoor air pollution from traditional cooking fuels, which often intensifies when cleaner alternatives are inaccessible due to disrupted supply chains, exposes women to respiratory illnesses. Climate disasters also disrupt maternal healthcare services, making reproductive and prenatal care difficult to access in emergencies. Children face equally severe consequences. Their physical, cognitive, and emotional development is jeopardized by climate change. Malnutrition caused by declining agricultural productivity leads to stunting, wasting, and weakened immune systems in children. They are highly vulnerable to diarrheal diseases, malaria, and dengue, which spread more widely in warmer and wetter climates. The disruption
