Women's Leadership in Emergencies

Women’s voices save lives and increase gender equality. When women’s voices are not heard, women’s rights and needs are often not adequately met, and emergency response can reinforce gender inequality. Women’s equal voice, leadership and participation challenges and transforms the root causes of poverty and injustice.
