It addresses the growing intensity and frequency of natural disasters and their direct impact on societies. Socio-economic development and disasters emerge from the same ongoing processes of change, and as the world’s population increases, certain communities remain more exposed to hazards due to their political, economic, and environmental contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe primary focus of the book is on \u003cstrong\u003egendered vulnerabilities\u003c\/strong\u003e to natural disasters. Why are women more exposed and at risk during such events? How can gender concerns be integrated into disaster risk reduction to make women and children less vulnerable? The book provides a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approach, aimed at social scientists, social workers, planners, and emergency managers. It also offers a valuable resource for science-based decision-making in the context of disaster preparedness and response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePART I: Introduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNatural Disaster and Women: A Gendered Perspective \/ Pradeep Kumar Parida\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePART II: Gender Inequality, Susceptibility, and Disaster\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2.
