Gender Analysis of Climate and Disaster Risk Finance and Insurance in Madagascar

Madagascar is highly exposed to climate-related shocks, including recurrent cyclones and droughts, which disproportionately affect women due to entrenched social norms, high poverty levels, and limited access to land ownership and financial services. This report, commissioned by the Centre of Excellence on Gender-smart Solutions and conducted by Oxford Policy Management, examines how Climate and Disaster Risk Finance and Insurance (CDRFI) policies and programmes in Madagascar integrate Gender Equality and Social Inclusion (GESI), and assesses whether existing frameworks effectively address differentiated vulnerabilities.
Gender Analysis of Climate and Disaster Risk Finance and Insurance in Senegal

Climate change poses significant risks and impacts that disproportionately affect vulnerable groups, particularly women. While measures such as access to credit, savings tools, and affordable insurance products can help mitigate losses and damages caused by climate-related events, there are stark gender-specific differences in how these risks and impacts are experienced.
This review primarily focuses on the integration of gender considerations in CDRFI policies and programmes in Senegal, with only partial exploration of other aspects of social inclusion. The aim is to identify gaps and provide recommendations for integrating and/or strengthening gender-responsive approaches within CDRFI.
