Gender and Early Warning System

Summary

Early warnings are more effective when it is possible to take into consideration the layers that exist within a group, as this can help to identify synergies across ethnicity, class, gender, and other lines. The main purpose of gender analysis is to reveal political, social, and economic inequalities between men and women by highlighting the gender-based roots of these inequalities.

Therefore, this document has attempted to highlight the interconnection between gender and early warning systems and the role, importance of gender inclusion in disaster.
