Resumen: | Crises can intensify existing gender inequalities; women and girls often face different risks to men and boys in crises and are often disproportionately affected by shocks. Despite the increased investment in shock-sensitive social protection in recent years, most programmes have been gender-blind, with little attention given to the specific needs of women and girls across the life cycle in the context of crises. Overlooking gender and inclusion issues risks exacerbating poverty, vulnerability and gender inequality, and misses opportunities for empowerment and transformative change. |
