Abstract: 

The gender-environment relations have valuable ramifications in regard to the understanding of nature between men and women, the management and distribution of resources and responsibilities and the day-to-day life and well being of people.] Women's perspectives and values for the environment are somewhat different from men's. Women give greater priority to protection of and improving the capacity of nature, maintaining farming lands, and caring for nature and environment's future .Eco-feminism refers to women's and feminist perspectives on the environment - where the domination and exploitation of women, of poorly resourced peoples and of nature is at the heart of the eco-feminist movement .Gender-based commitments and movements have reached to a new approach through the combination of feminism and environmentalism called eco-feminism, believe on the interconnection between the domination of women and nature.
