BNPB and Bappenas: Strengthening the Role of Women and Persons with Disabilities in Disaster Risk Reduction

BNPB and Bappenas emphasised the need to strengthen the role of women and persons with disabilities in disaster risk reduction, recognising that these groups are disproportionately vulnerable during disasters. At the national workshop held in conjunction with International Women’s Day 2025, it was highlighted that women are not merely individuals to be protected but also active agents of change. By adopting gender-sensitive and inclusive approaches, women and marginalised groups are expected to play meaningful roles across all phases of disaster management, from preparedness to post-disaster recovery.

We not only have an understanding of disabilities but also how to position them from being just objects of aid recipients to being part of policymakers. Previously, let alone involving them in planning, we didn't even have data on disability," he said.
