Climate vulnerability and gender inequality may increase due to climate change. Women may, thus, face specific conditions of vulnerability in society and daily livelihood. This paper focuses on investigating factors that influence women\u2019s vulnerability from climate change, their adaptations, and the importance of women empowerment to reduce their inequality in SWCRB. This study also emphasizes gender inequality caused by climate change, and looks at accommodations for women to reduce hostile influences of climate change. From the 9 unions in SWCRB, a total of 320 household respondents were randomly selected to complete a questionnaire. The results of the statistical analysis showed that most of the survey\u2019s perimeter has significant. Interviews, case studies, focus group discussions, workshops, and key informant interviews were also conducted from 12 unions, and it was found that climate change impacts men and women differently, with women being more vulnerable than men. Through case study this paper investigated the main factors influencing the vulnerability of women. In terms of empowerment women may also be well positioned to lead adaptation efforts alongside men, as this analysis represent that gender inequalities are leading by social norms. Women being more vulnerable both in short-term i.e., major natural disasters, cyclones, flood, and long-term i.e., sea level rise, salinity intrusion in water and soil, land erosion, droughts, climatic events, as they enhance gender inequalities. Further, gender inequality is seen in illiteracy, food shortages and poor health conditions, traditional norms, religious taboos, and patriarchy. Moreover, gender-based economic opportunities, women\u2019s mobility, and income are changing, while household authority relations and gender-based socio-economic, cultural, and institutional constraints remain. This study examines the increased vulnerability of women in SWCRB to climate change, which can be mitigated through women empowerment; female involvement with environmentally friendly stoves, rural electrification and renewable energy development, microfinancing, and nakshikantha. (Nakshikantha is a special type of sewing art that is made by creating designs with different types of colored threads on plain stitches). Lastly, women may also lead adaptation efforts alongside men, make decisions, and promote their participation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/cli10110172","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,8]],"date-time":"2022-11-08T10:47:34Z","timestamp":1667904454000},"page":"172","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":49,"title":["Exploring Gender and Climate Change Nexus, and Empowering Women in the South Western Coastal Region of Bangladesh for Adaptation and Mitigation"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Ashrafuzzaman","family":"Md","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Climate Change and Sustainable Development Policies, University of Lisbon, 1600-189 Lisbon, Portugal"},{"name":"Institute of Social Sciences, University of Lisbon, 1600-189 Lisbon, Portugal"},{"name":"Department of Geography, University of Valencia, 28, 46010 Valencia, Spain"},{"name":"Department of Anthropology, University of Chittagong, Chattogram 4331, Bangladesh"},{"name":"Climate Change Department, University of East Anglia, Norwich Research Park, Norwich NR4 7TJ, UK"}]},{"given":"Carla","family":"Gomes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Social Sciences, University of Lisbon, 1600-189 Lisbon, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7613-6241","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jo\u00e3o Miguel","family":"Dias","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Physics Department, CESAM, University of Aveiro, Campus Universit\u00e1rio de Santiago, 3810-193 Aveiro, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5326-4489","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Artemi","family":"Cerd\u00e0","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geography, University of Valencia, 28, 46010 Valencia, Spain"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e13874","DOI":"10.1111\/cobi.13874","article-title":"Global rarity of intact coastal regions","volume":"36","author":"Williams","year":"2022","journal-title":"Conserv.
