Fixing pollution: Women's role in the developing countries

Abstract

Pollution is a
challenge globally. This is part of what the 17 Sustainable Development Goals set
by the UN are meant to tackle. Good Health
and Well-being,
Clean Water and Sanitation, Affordable and Clean Energy, Sustainable
Cities and Communities,
Climate Action, Life Below Water, and Life
on Land
(Goals 3, 6, 7, 11, 13, 14, and 15 respectively) are greatly affected by
environmental pollution. To achieve these targets, men, women, and children are
needed as stakeholders. For the purpose of this paper, the roles women should
play in developing countries are
discussed. Although women have actively involved in pollution reduction or
elimination in developing countries, their roles have been limited due to several factors. In this paper the
questions: What is the specificity of women in environmental pollution? In what
sense does it bring solutions to environmental pollution? To achieve this, the
objectives of the present review are to systematize and explore in-depth the
causes of pollution in developing countries and the roles to be played by women
in solving or reducing the environmental problems.
