Gender and Social Vulnerability to Climate Change: A Study of Disaster Prone Areas in Sindh

The study examines how climate risks intersect with gender inequality in communities exposed to floods, droughts, and cyclones. Covering districts such as Thatta, Badin, Dadu, and Tharparkar, the study highlights women’s heightened vulnerability due to limited access to resources, mobility constraints, and socio‑economic disadvantages. It provides evidence for designing inclusive climate adaptation and disaster‑risk reduction strategies that strengthen resilience and empower women in Sindh’s most vulnerable regions.
