About our Circle

  • Meets once a month
  • Looking for members

Our group focuses on empowering women in disaster risk reduction (DRR). We believe that women's unique perspectives, knowledge, and skills are crucial for building resilient communities. We work to amplify women's voices, promote their leadership in DRR initiatives, and address the gender-specific vulnerabilities that women face during and after disasters. Our activities include research, advocacy, training, community projects, etc. We strive to create a more inclusive and equitable approach to disaster preparedness and response, recognizing that resilient communities are built by empowering all their members.
