Historical marginality and exclusion are context-specific conditions that shape vulnerability . There is also robust evidence that gender inequalities contribute to climate vulnerability, and that consideration of gender is a key approach to climate justice . There is robust evidence for the differentiated impacts of climate change and climate- orientated policies on women . For example, Friedman et al.  show that, in Ghana, homogeneous representations of women farmers and a technical focus of climate-orientated policy interventions may threaten to further marginalise the most vulnerable and exacerbate existing inequalities. Climate change impacts can also heighten existing gender inequalities . On the one hand, climate change impacts can be gendered as a result of customary roles in society, such as triple workloads for women , and occupational hazards from gendered work indoors and outdoors . On the other, climate change hazards interact with changing gender roles in society, such as urban migration of both men and women in ways that break with tradition .
