Integrating Gender into Community Based Disaster Risk Management: Training Manual
Community Based Disaster Risk Management (CBDRM) seeks to contribute to gender equality and women’s empowerment. The CBDRM Training and Learning Circle (TLC) network has developed this training manual on Integrating Gender into Community Based Disaster Risk Management, to help harness the capacities of both women and men in addressing vulnerable conditions and protecting themselves, their families and communities against hazards. Gender perspective is a cross-cutting principle of the Hyogo Framework for Action 2000-2015.
The intended beneficiaries of this manual are the CBDRM trainers, practitioners and facilitators, local government authorities and staff, civil society organizations, the academe and women’s groups and communities.
