"Building Resilient Communities" from World Bank Social Safety Net Team

New toolkit release - 'Building Resilient Communities'

The Social Protection Anchor Team [World Bank] recently launched the Building Resilient
Communities toolkit, an instrument designed to help social protection
practitioners to incorporate disaster risk management into Social Funds and CDD projects. The toolkit draws from good practices and other experiences in sharing lessons learned. It also incorporates various modules dedicated to the different phases of disaster management - risk reduction, disaster response, and long-term disaster recovery - as well as sections specifically related to Gender; Disability; and Older People, Children, and Minorities.
