Book synopsis

This collection of articles explores the ways in which emergencies affect men and women differently, from the risks and vulnerabilities they face during disasters to their changing roles and responsibilities and the resources they bring when preparing for and coping with disaster. It also considers the ways in which humanitarian responses influence the nature of gender relations.Some contributors focus on humanitarian activity during natural disasters and analyze responses to conflict; others consider the post-crisis period of reconstruction and provide lessons and recommendations for conflict resolution and peace building. The book includes case studies drawn from Latin America, Israel, and Kyrgyzstan
