Disaster Management QUESTION #6523
Question 1
Which gender-sensitive DRR intervention addresses root causes rather than symptoms of vulnerability?
  • Providing separate relief distribution lines for women
  • Ensuring women's participation in disaster risk governance and decision-making✔️
  • Offering gender-specific emergency supplies
  • Creating women-only evacuation centers
