Mitigation and adaptation responses to climate change influence inequalities, poverty and livelihood security and thereby aspects of climate justice . Improving coherence between adaptations of different social groups and sectors at different scales can reduce maladaptation, enable mitigation and advance progress towards climate resilience . The poor typically have low carbon footprints but are disproportionately affected by adverse consequences of climate change and also lack access to adaptation options. In many cases, the poor and most vulnerable people and groups are most adversely affected by maladaptation . Climate justice and rights-based approaches are increasingly recognised as key principles within mitigation and adaptation strategies and projects . Narrowing gender gaps can play a transformative role in pursuing climate justice . Climate resilient development is therefore closely coupled with issues of climate justice. Synergies between adaptation and mitigation exist, and these can have benefits for the poor .
