Gender and Climate Change

The majority Ethiopian women are largely engaged in the agricultural sector, which is highly vulnerable to climate changes. This study, aims at analyzing the determinants of female farmers’ adaptation measures of climate change in the Atsbi Womberta. This article designed as a cross-sectional research design and employed qualitative and quantitative research approaches. Data was obtained from primary and secondary sources. Moreover, both the probability and non-probability sampling techniques were employed. Accordingly, the majority respondents indicated that there is a perceived change in climate. Thus, this article found that 11 major adaptive mechanism to climate change. The result from the binary logistic model reveals that age, access to training, farming experience, access to credit service, radio and mobile services determines female farmers' adaptive methods to climate change. Finally, the article recommends greater investment in female farmer education and training to address the above mentioned challenges.

Abstract

The majority Ethiopian women are largely engaged in the agricultural sector, which is highly vulnerable to climate changes. This study, aims at analyzing the determinants of female farmers’ adaptation measures of climate change in the Atsbi Womberta. This article designed as a cross-sectional research design and employed qualitative and quantitative research approaches. Data was obtained from primary and secondary sources. Moreover, both the probability and non-probability sampling techniques were employed. Accordingly, the majority respondents indicated that there is a perceived change in climate. Thus, this article found that 11 major adaptive mechanism to climate change. The result from the binary logistic model reveals that age, access to training, farming experience, access to credit service, radio and mobile services determines female farmers' adaptive methods to climate change. Finally, the article recommends greater investment in female farmer education and training to address the above mentioned challenges.
