For the past three decades, international norms about the responsibilities of governments with respect to disaster risk and resilience have been discussed and decided at world conferences led by the United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Reduction. Each of the three conferences resulted in a voluntary international agreement supported by Member States, with the latest agreement showing more robust uptake of women's realities. One of nine civil society Major Groups within the UNISDR system, the Women's Major Group (WMG), constituted in part by a Japanese civil society-led delegation, actively advocated for integration and key indicators monitoring the implementation of gender equality. This paper fills significant gaps in the international accounts of the Sendai Framework by tracking the specific policy demands of the WMG and Member States in the lead up to the Conference to reveal the areas of overlap and policy alignment among critical government and feminist civil society stakeholders. Albeit not a perfect document, we suggest that significant gains were won by the WMG in the language and approach taken in the new international agreement and successful in creating a consensus on the importance of women's leadership in DRR. It names women as leaders and agents of change, rather than as essentialist victims.

关于减少灾害风险国际协议的女权主义倡导:从横滨到仙台

在过去的三十年里,在联合国国际减灾战略领导的世界会议上讨论并决定了关于政府在灾害风险和抗灾力方面的责任的国际规范。三个会议中的每一个都达成了一项由会员国支持的自愿国际协议,最新的协议显示出对妇女现实的更强有力的理解。UNISDR 系统内九个民间社会主要团体之一,妇女主要团体(WMG),部分由日本民间社会领导的代表团组成,积极倡导整合和监测性别平等实施的关键指标。本文通过跟踪 WMG 和会员国在会议之前的具体政策需求,以揭示关键政府和女权主义民间社会利益相关者之间的重叠和政策一致性领域,填补了仙台框架国际账户中的重大空白。尽管不是一份完美的文件,但我们认为 WMG 在新国际协议中采用的语言和方法取得了重大进展,并成功地就女性在 DRR 中发挥领导作用的重要性达成了共识。它将女性称为变革的领导者和推动者,而不是本质主义的受害者。
