Environment and Disaster Management

Our vision is dedicated to fostering inclusivity in disaster management by amplifying the role of women in prevention and mitigation efforts. We aim to elevate the status of women, ensuring their active participation in disaster management processes. Our mission centers on increasing awareness of disasters and transforming women from passive victims into proactive solution providers. By empowering women as pivotal contributors to sustainable natural resource management, we strive to create a paradigm shift where they play a central role in mitigating the impact of disasters. This mission emphasizes the importance of recognizing women not only as vulnerable populations but as resilient agents of change. Through education and empowerment, we aspire to reshape societal perceptions, positioning women as leaders in disaster preparedness and response. By harnessing the unique strengths and perspectives of women, we can build a more resilient and adaptive community that effectively addresses the challenges posed by natural disasters.
