Does adoption of environmental policy matter for women's political empowerment in developing countries?

Article scientifique 2023 Anglais

Résumé

Abstract This paper assesses the effect of environmental policy on women's political empowerment (WPE). Using a sample of 96 developing countries (DCs), we specify and estimate a static and dynamic panel data model using pooled ordinary least squares (POLS) and system generalized method of moments (sGMM) over the period 2006-2019. Our results show that environmental policy significantly increases WPE. Robustness is tested through the use of disaggregated indexes, political participation, civil society participation and women's civil liberties. We suggest a strategic adoption of effective and inclusive environmental policies for the consolidation of women's political empowerment in developing countries.
