This resource is a guidance note which provides design and implementation considerations for gender-responsive and transformative social protection in crisis contexts. It consolidates existing evidence and short case studies into actionable guidance to address gender inequalities. As inequalities are exacerbated during crises, the guidance note identifies ways to implement actions that can help reverse, and even transform, the disadvantages experienced by women and girls in these contexts.
The resource is primarily designed for practitioners in the fields of social protection working in crisis contexts and humanitarian practitioners working on linkages with social protection. It is also useful for gender practitioners working in crisis settings, identifying relevant instruments to promote gender equality and transformation in these contexts.
