LWR Response and Recovery Areas
LWR’s Current Response: Cross-Cutting Themes
Protection
Disaster-affected populations are treated
with full emotional support, protection and
care. LWR's activities promote community cohesion and social
support systems.
Participation People affected by
disaster are involved and consulted in project
design and management. All project participants are
well informed about response activities and
benefits.
Gender
Women, particularly those heading households, and girls are encouraged to
participate in projects and are involved in decision-making processes during
project planning and implementation. To
maintain gender equity, women and girls are given
preference for participation, as necessary.
Building Local Capacity Local partners and affected
communities are fully supported in their rights and
responsibilities as project participants. These actors
are capacitated to be involved in project design,
implementation and evaluation.
