TS.B.9.3 Economic livelihoods that are more climate sensitive have been disproportionately degraded by climate change . Climate-sensitive livelihoods are more concentrated in regions that have higher socioeconomic vulnerabilities and lower adaptive capacities, exacerbating existing inequalities . Extreme events have also had more pronounced adverse effects in poorer regions and on more vulnerable populations . These greater economic effects have further reduced the ability of these populations to adapt to existing impacts . Within populations, the poor, women, children, elderly and Indigenous populations have been especially vulnerable due to a combination of factors, including gendered divisions of paid and/ or unpaid labour .
