dc.description.abstract | Ecosystem services have become a critical issue in the environmental literature, however
knowledge on whether women and men similarly value ecosystem services is still nascent. We aim
at advancing the understanding of the relation between gender and environmental perceptions
through the analysis of values assigned by women and men to ecosystem services supplied by home
gardens in Vall Fosca (Catalan Pyrenees, north-eastern Spain). We found that women give a higher
value than men to all ecosystem services. Overall, women’s valuation of the full range of ecosystem
services provided by home gardens was 7.55% higher than men’s valuation. Gender socialization
influences the way people interact with and value the environment, including highly managed
environments such as home gardens. We argue that considering gendered differences in ecosystem
services valuation may lead to policies more effective in enhancing ecosystem services provision.
