Abstract

This chapter explores the essential role of women in environmental conservation, focusing on their challenges and successes. It examines how gender, socioeconomic factors, and cultural contexts impact women's leadership in conservation. Using a comprehensive literature review, case studies, and original research, the chapter highlights the barriers women face—such as discrimination, resource limitations, and cultural norms—and showcases their innovative contributions to conservation. It underscores the need to empower women in leadership roles to achieve sustainable environmental management and advance human rights. The study offers valuable insights for policymakers, conservation organizations, and activists seeking to promote gender equality in environmental stewardship.
