Women are more likely to live in poorer households globally than men. Countries where this is evident are predominantly fragile or conflict-affected. In order to meet the Sustainable Development Goals and ensure no one is left behind, women鈥檚 economic empowerment must be prioritised and resourced in crisis contexts.
Choices, Chances and Safety in Crisis discusses the impact of crisis on women鈥檚 economic empowerment and the limitations of recent responses. It proposes a practical model for increasing women鈥檚 safety as well as their use and control of resources in crisis contexts. It outlines the preconditions that must be met to genuinely transform harmful gender norms and empower women economically along with examples from 探花精选鈥檚 work. It concludes with recommendations for governments, international actors and the humanitarian sector.
