Environmental and climatic changes affect the livelihood and health of human beings both directly and indirectly. The aim of this study is to explore the health impacts of environmental and climatic change from gender perspectives in Nepal using a combination of gender feminist social ecology and social epidemiological theories including the place-based approach of environmental health relationships. A mixed methods research design is used in the study. The methods used to collect data include a review of existing research literature focus group discussions and questionnaires interviews with key players and focus group discussions with members of the community and interviews with experts and key policymakers. The study reveals that the level of understanding about climate change varies from one geographical region to another (place of dwelling) and is also influenced by other sociocultural factors among which are gender ethnicity and age. An analysis of both qualitative and quantitative data indicates a difference in access to and control over health protection resources participation in policymaking processes and a greater burden for females in terms of work which places them at greater risk of experiencing health problems due to environmental and climatic change.
