The relationship between environment, water, and women is deeply intertwined, reflecting both socio-economic and cultural dimensions. Women, particularly in developing countries, are primary custodians of natural resources, especially water, forests, and energy sources. Their roles in domestic management, agriculture, and community welfare place them at the forefront of environmental interactions, making them key actors in sustainable development practices. Understanding this association requires exploring how women engage with natural resources, the challenges they face, and the implications for gender-sensitive development goals. In many rural societies, women are responsible for securing water for household consumption, cooking, and sanitation. Studies have shown that in regions of Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, women and girls spend significant hours daily fetching water from rivers, wells, or communal taps. This task is not merely physical labor; it shapes their daily routines, affects their health, limits opportunities for education, and impacts overall productivity. For instance, in parts of India, women in villages often walk several kilometers daily to collect water, facing risks from unsafe terrain and sometimes harassment. Their intimate engagement with water resources gives them unique knowledge about water availability, seasonal patterns, and local ecosystems.
