Call for assistance! We are doing one last push for respondents on the UK & Brazilian side of the Who Cares project before we close these two surveys: If you are in FB/WhatsApp groups, have friends/family to share with - this is a last chance to be a part of the project!

Want to help us reach as large an audience as possible? We now have a Facebook post you can like and share: facebook.com/share/18VBtSuK… Help us take a stand for our care and domestic workers 👊👊👊

🌈 The resources address a range of social identities & expand the traditional binary approach to examining “gender” in disaster scenarios. 🌏 This bibliography also aims to promote references that may be less often cited or less visible, especially from the Global South.

🌋 Gender norms and stereotypes, socially and culturally structured gender roles, and power relations affect our understanding of a disaster scenario. ⚖️ Disasters must be seen in relation to broader, structural inequalities.

"Populations deemed ‘vulnerable’ are much more resourceful than the elite can see, they don’t need ‘development’ programmes; they need to be heard and given the chance to coordinate their own projects. Those women are the best, popular educators I have ever seen."
