Percepcija žena o klimatskim promenama: Studija slučaja

Abstract

For decades, climate change has been one of the main environmental issues that have been the subject of research by both science and the profession. Another issue is being added to this problem, ie one that refers to the role of women as a vulnerable group that is more susceptible to the negative impact of climate change. With this in mind, the authors of the paper conducted a study that included 117 respondents from the Republic of Serbia with the aim of examining their knowledge, opinions, and attitudes about this global problem of the Planet. The results of the research were obtained using the software package SPSS 22. Based on the results of our pilot study, it can be concluded that respondents are generally well aware of the negative climate change effects on the environment, but have insufficient knowledge about women's vulnerability to climate change, which implies insufficient knowledge about women's rights and gender equality. specifically addressing gender aspects in response to climate change and environmental protection.
