Abstract: This book examines how policymakers can overcome institutional barriers to implement feminist approaches in responding to the climate emergency. It highlights the limitations of traditional gender mainstreaming and advocates for transformative feminist strategies that integrate social justice, equality, and climate action. Drawing on case studies, research, and interviews with feminist practitioners, legislators, and community leaders, the authors demonstrate how gender-just policies can be designed and applied across multiple levels of governance. The work emphasizes the urgent need for radical change in climate policy within industrialised states, particularly as political shifts threaten progress on gender equality, diversity, human rights, and environmental action.
