dc.descriptionViolence against women and girls (VAWG) has negative impacts on physical and mental health. Health care settings provide a unique opportunity to identify VAWG survivors, provide critical support services, and prevent future harm. Ample studies have shown that natural disasters, including tsunamis, hurricanes, earthquakes, and floods, disproportionately affect women and girls, who are at greater risk of violence and exploitation than men and boys in the face of uprooted housing and traditional support structures, disrupted access to services, and both structural and social obstacles to accessing food, relief, supplies, and latrines. A study conducted four years after Hurricane Katrina occurred in the United States found that the rate of new cases of VAWG among displaced women also increased and did not return to the pre-hurricane baseline during the protracted phase of displacement.
dc.descriptionEsta nota sectorial estudia la integración de iniciativas de prevención y respuesta a la violencia contra mujeres y niñas en gestión de riesgo de desastres. Los desastres causados por fenómenos naturales, como tsunamis, huracanes, terremotos e inundaciones, afectan a las mujeres y a las niñas de manera desproporcionada. Éstas corren un riesgo más alto de sufrir violencia y explotación que los hombres y los niños en situaciones de desarraigo, al tener que abandonar sus viviendas y perder las estructuras tradicionales de apoyo por el fenómeno, encontrar dificultades para acceder a los servicios y al surgir obstáculos sociales y estructurales que impiden el acceso a alimentos, ayuda, suministros y letrinas. La protección contra la violencia es una de las normas mínimas establecidas como principio de la asistencia humanitaria. Los tipos de la VCMN más comunes en situaciones de emergencia son la violación y otras clases de agresión sexual, la agresión física, el maltrato psicológico y emocional, la explotación sexual y el tráfico de personas. Los organismos de asistencia humanitaria, los gobiernos anfitriones, los donantes, las fuerzas del mantenimiento de la paz, las Naciones Unidas y otros actores comprometidos a trabajar con las poblaciones afectadas y en su beneficio son responsables de prevenir y responder a la violencia de género.
