Closing the Gender Gap in Agriculture (2016, background): “Women are also important agents of innovation in response to climateinduced change (Denton, 2002).”
Gender, Weather Shocks and Welfare: Evidence from Malawi (2018, background): “8 Differences across social groups, especially across gender, persist since each group presents differences in labour supply, in access to available resources and to technologies and other forms of sustainable agricultural practices (Dankelman, 2008; Denton, 2002; Futoshi, Yohannes, & Quisumbing, 20”

Explaining differential vulnerability to climate change: A social science review (2018, background): “Factors such as lack of access to and control over basic resources and lack of entitlements amplify women's vulnerability and undermine their ability to cope with effects of disasters (Denton, 2002; Sultana, 2014).”
