resilience by increasing Mercy Corps Indonesia’ capacity to better respond to
gender-specific needs and vulnerabilities during complex and chronic crises.
Disasters and chronic stresses can
undermine the foundations of communities, but may also provide opportunities to
begin to transform deeply entrenched inequality. Although men, women, boys, and
girls are all vulnerable to the impacts of disasters, women and youth are often
exposed to additional barriers – such as constraints on their mobility or
insufficient access to land, education, and finance – that decrease their
capacity to adapt to adversity and contribute to change. At the same time,
women, youth, and other vulnerable groups often have critical knowledge and
skills that can help their households and communities respond to and recover
from crises. The BRIGE program will support the aid community to better
identify and utilize these untapped resources while empowering women and youth
to be part of household and community decision-making. Ultimately, BRIGE seeks
to empower women and youth as agents of resilience, thereby increasing the
coping capacities of households and communities to manage the impacts of
