Description

Gender inequalities and limited access to resources constrain women's ability to withstand and recover from financial shocks and economic distress arising from natural hazards.

Recognizing the importance of financial inclusion in addressing the issue, this publication explores good practices in the use of financial instruments to enhance women's disaster resilience.

This includes the identification of appropriate distribution channels to reach low-income women.

The publication provides recommendations for policy makers and regulators, development partners, and financial service providers on facilitating the development, design, and promotion of financial products and services that will enhance women's resilience to disasters.
