Advancing Gender-Responsive SRHR in the Face of Climate Change: Worudet at the West Nile Symposium 2025

Advancing Gender-Responsive SRHR in the Face of Climate Change: Worudet at the West Nile Symposium 2025

Worudet proudly joined over 60 stakeholders at the West Nile SRHR Symposium 2025, a two-day convening hosted by Feminature Uganda under the theme “Curating a Collective & Sustainable SRHR Agenda for Women & Girls in the Face of Climate Change in West Nile.”

This landmark gathering brought together policymakers, civil society, development partners, and community leaders to champion the integration of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) into climate action. The symposium aligned with global priorities, particularly SDG 5 (Gender Equality) and SDG 13 (Climate Action), underscoring the urgent need for gender-responsive solutions in the era of climate change.

Key Highlights from the Symposium

  • Ms. Lekuru Annet, Executive Director of Feminature Uganda, called for stronger collaboration to address the intersection of gender and climate challenges, urging policymakers to embed SRHR into climate policies.
  • Mrs. Bako Judith, Assistant Resident City Commissioner of Arua City, emphasized tackling gender-based violence and dismantling cultural barriers that hinder women and girls.
  • Dr. Bakomeza Denis, UNFPA West Nile, highlighted socio-economic empowerment and community-driven approaches as critical pathways to resilience.
  • Hon. Feta Geoffrey, MP for Aivu East, stressed environmental protection and equitable access to health services as pillars of sustainable development.

Collective Commitments

The symposium produced clear commitments:

  • Strengthened partnerships across institutions and communities.
  • Gender-responsive financing to ensure resources reach women and girls most affected by climate change.
  • Actionable policies that integrate SRHR into climate adaptation and mitigation strategies.

Worudet’s Role
