TS.E.2.4 Gender-sensitive, equity- and justice-based adaptation approaches, integration of Indigenous knowledge systems within legal frameworks and the promotion of Indigenous land tenure rights reduce vulnerability and increase resilience . Integrating adaptation into social protection programmes can build long-term resilience to climate change . Nevertheless, social protection programmes can increase resilience to climate related shocks, even if they do not specifically address climate risks . Climate adaptation actions are grounded in local realities so understanding links with SDGs is important to ensure that adaptive actions do not worsen existing gender and other inequities within society, leading to maladaptation practices .
