Guidelines for Gender-Sensitive Disaster Management: Practical Steps to Ensure Women’s Needs Are Met and Women’s Human Rights Are Respected and Protected during Disasters
Guidelines for Gender-Sensitive Disaster Management: Practical Steps to Ensure Women’s Needs Are Met and Women’s Human Rights Are Respected and Protected during Disasters provides a practical framework for integrating a gender perspective into all phases of disaster management, from preparedness and response to recovery and reconstruction. The guidelines highlight the differentiated impacts of disasters on women and men, identify structural inequalities that increase women’s vulnerability, and outline concrete measures to ensure women’s participation, safety, access to services, and fulfillment of their human rights during disaster situations. Grounded in human rights and gender equality principles, the document aims to support policymakers, practitioners, and humanitarian actors in designing and implementing disaster management strategies that are inclusive, equitable, and responsive to women’s specific needs and capacities.
