The project centres on (gender) equality in times of crisis and explores how future Nordic resilience strategies can better support equality goals. In times of overlapping crises – security, climate, -and health – urgent responses often override long-term structural equality goals. This risks sidelining gender commitments, despite evidence that crises are not gender-neutral: norms and inequalities shape both exposure and resilience. The project will conduct a literature review, stakeholder interviews, collect Nordic best practices, and foster network-building activities.

Desired outputs include a report with findings and recommendations and an online Nordic conference to foster a future network on gendered resilience in the Nordics.

In november 2026 The project invites you to a webinar presenting findings from its new report on gender and crisis preparedness in the Nordic region.
