Nine years to the day after the adoption of the global blueprint for disaster risk reduction by the United Nations Member States, the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR) is celebrating the launch of the Gender Action Plan to Support Implementation of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030.

Known as the “Sendai GAP”, this Action Plan will support governments and other stakeholders to reduce the negative impacts of gender discrimination and inequality in disasters. The Sendai GAP consultations that led to the development of the Action Plan involved 65 countries and more than 500 non-governmental stakeholders, demonstrating how much gender equality in disaster risk reduction has become a priority in all regions of the world, and how much energy there is to move towards this goal now.

The Sendai GAP aims to accelerate implementation of the Sendai Framework by substantially increasing resource allocations, activities and impacts of gender-responsive disaster risk reduction and substantially decreasing gender-related disaster risk by 2030. It identifies nine key objectives related to the four priorities of the Sendai Framework and recommends 33 actions that promote gender equality and the empowerment of all women and girls in disaster risk reduction.
