What does COP29 mean for India’s most marginalised groups, women in particular? As world leaders, campaigners and industry bodies take part in COP29, it opens up the question if it would deliver on gender justice?

On this podcast, climate journalist Roli Srivastava gets a gender-focussed understanding of COP29 from Baku, Azerbaijan.
