Yesterday at #GP2025, we co-hosted a panel discussion unpacking synergies between different Gender Action Plans (GAPs) under multiple conventions & frameworks. 5 key takeaways: 1️⃣ Greater political will & institutional commitment are essential for GAP implementation.

As #GP2025 begins next week, the Women and Gender Stakeholder Group asserts that equitable, inclusive & transformative disaster risk reduction can't be achieved without full, equal & meaningful participation of women & girls in all their diversity. 📜 Read our reflections & key feminist demands:

Women don’t die in disasters because they’re women. They die because systems fail them. The 14X myth distracts from the real issue: inequality. We need to shift the narrative and the policy. 🔗 Read more:
