The Vatican has blocked discussions over women’s rights at the UN climate summit following a row over gay and transgender issues, sources have told BBC News.

Pope Francis’ representatives have aligned with Saudi Arabia, Russia, Iran, and Egypt to obstruct a deal which would have provided more support, including financial help, for women at the forefront of climate change, Colombia’s environment minister told the BBC.

Charities including ActionAid said it is crucial a deal is reached as the UN estimates women and girls currently make up 80% of those displaced by climate change.

Why do we gender the aid for this issue?

It's called being smart and using data. It's the same reason you don't give a box of single use diapers to everyone in a crisis such as refugees from a large fire or flood.

Sorry, I just realized the article is longer than i thought. I mistook an ad intermission for the end. It does go a little bit into it. Not a lot, but enough to puzzle it together. Thanks.
