Liberian president President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf hosted a high-level meeting, the International Colloquium on Women’s Leadership, whose purpose was to strengthen women’s leadership particularly in Africa. The meeting adopted a call to action on gender and climate change which calls upon governments, non-governmental organizations, citizens and other stakeholders to create an enabling environment for women’s participation in the decision making levels on climate related issues as well as support women’s existing roles as climate leaders in their homes, communities and public spaces at large.
