Since 2015, ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳has implemented Anticipatory Action programmes across 44 countries, including Madagascar, Malawi, Tanzania and Zimbabwe, helping communities anticipate and mitigate the impacts of climate shocks. Recognizing that women, children, and marginalized groups are disproportionately affected by these impacts, these studies examine the specific challenges faced by vulnerable populations during climate shocks. To ensure AA programmes are truly gender-responsive and inclusive of all vulnerable groups, interventions must be centrally informed by the lived experiences and voices of those most marginalized.
