Project on Gender and Vulnerability in Disaster Risk Reduction Support. Contributors come from five disaster-prone Asian countries, and the chapters reflect their rich knowledge and practical experience in disaster management and humanitarian assistance. The chapters, all with a focus on gender and vulnerability, illustrate that gender can make people, especially women, vulnerable. The chapters address the experiences of state and non-state actors responding to disaster and promoting recovery at the local level. However, while women and vulnerable people may be victims of disasters, they also serve as agents for recovery and voices for better disaster preparedness. In sharing both successes and failures, as well as suggestions for the future, this book speaks to the need for transdisciplinary knowledge and multilevel coordination, as well as full equality for all genders and respect for human rights, in order to cope with increasingly more frequent, intense, and complex emergencies. This book is of interest as a text to students in a variety of disciplines who are focusing on disaster and health emergencies, as well as to practitioners and others promoting disaster risk reduction and resilience.Kobe University Monograph Series in Social Science Research SeriesEmergency managementSocial aspectsHazard mitigationSocial aspectsWomen disaster victimsEmergency managementSocial aspects.Hazard mitigationSocial aspects.Women disaster victims.363.348082Alexander Ronni1432824Siriphō̜n Watchawankhu1436907MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910751390503321Making disaster safer3596533UNINA
