Women's Contributions to Climate Resilience through MGNREGS in Manipur
Dr. Hijam Ranakumari Devi, Toreena Loitongbam
Abstract: Climate change poses significant challenges to rural India, particularly for vulnerable populations. This study examines the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MNREGS) in Manipur, highlighting its dual role in providing livelihoods and fostering climate resilience. Drawing on secondary data, the paper underscores women?s substantial contributions to environmental projects like water conservation and afforestation, alongside their economic empowerment. While MNREGS enhances rural sustainability, challenges such as gender disparities and limited policy integration persist. The findings suggest that strengthening women?s participation and aligning MNREGS with climate strategies could amplify its impact.
