As disasters affect genders, age groups, and communities differently, it's clear that women, children, persons with disabilities, and other vulnerable groups bear a disproportionate burden. Thus, a comprehensive approach to disaster resilience, encompassing all genders and communities, is imperative.

This grassroots engagement not only strengthens resilience but also mitigates adversities effectively.
