Description: We will use high level media events to draw attention to the urgent issues raised in the Call and spread this within Germany and throughout Europe, Our media efforts will provide basic information about gender and climate change, for those who are less familiar with the topic, and a detailed update on current issues within the negotiations, so that participants are informed and prepared to further engage with gender issues in the flurry of media activity during the COP. We deem this to be particularly important in Germany, as there is a high level of interest in environmental issues and the outcome of the climate negotiations, yet the connection between gender issues and climate change is not well established and rarely receives attention in the media.
