The volume explores the aspect of gender in the course of post-disaster reconstruction. The essays use case studies from disasters across the South Asian region and explore how women and men experience disaster differently. The book investigates the ways in which gender politics is altered by disaster and post-disaster reconstruction.
South Asia is one of the most vulnerable areas of an increasingly disaster-impacted world, with cyclones, earthquakes, floods and droughts causing several casualties and disrupting lives and livelihoods every year. Yet the impacts of disasters are not equally distributed across the peoples of the region.Women and men experience disaster differently
