Feminist crisis response to natural disasters in complex crisis

Case study on the earthquake response of Women Now for Development in Syria and Turkey

 

This learning paper documents an internal reflection and learning process at Women Now for Development on the earthquake response.

It seeks to model how feminist values and a gender-sensitive emergency response can be operationalized in the context of Northwest Syria. It seeks to contribute to ongoing transnational localization and humanitarian discourse by defining a contextualized concept of feminist crisis response.

Finally, it seeks to share our experience of the response with peer organizations looking for evidence and practice of the impact and power of feminist crisis response.
