The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (2015-2030) remains the keystone international policy for DRR. This blog celebrates the recent launch of the Framework’s Gender Action Plan (the Sendai GAP), outlining how this can support governments and other stakeholders in reducing the negative impacts of gender discrimination and inequality in disasters. The Sendai GAP identifies 9 key objectives related to the four priorities of the Sendai Framework and recommends 33 actions for promoting gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls in DRR.
