It is well known that women generally have weaker claims to land. But how does that translate to increased vulnerability during disaster? Using case studies from Asia, this book argues that land tenure is a key factor in mitigating the impact of disasters on women. The scale and frequency of disasters have been increasing in recent decades due to human impact on the landscape and climate. Unsustainable farming and land management systems have increased environmental risks and social vulnerabilities. However, around the world the costs of disasters are disproportionately borne by women, due largely to their reduced mobility and lack of control over assets. In post-disaster settings, women’s vulnerabilities increase due to gendered rescue and rehabilitation practices. As such, a gendered approach to land rights is critical to disaster preparedness and recovery. | | 出版日期 | Book 2015 | | 关键词 | Asia; Disaster; Gender; Land Tenure; Post-disaster Policies | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-16616-2 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-16615-5 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-16616-2Series ISSN 2193-3162 Series E-ISSN 2193-3170 | | issn_series | 2193-3162 | | copyright | The Author(s), Food and Agriculture Organization 2015 |
