In a world facing increasingly frequent and severe disasters, Nepal \u003cspan class=\"kY2IgmnCmOGjharHErah\" style=\"-webkit-line-clamp: 3;\"\u003e–\u003c\/span\u003e a country severely impacted by the effects of climate change and home to the Indigenous peoples of the Himalayas – offers a particularly compelling site to explore how Indigenous women experience and respond to these events at the local level. Grounded in original research, incorporating field reflections and policy analysis, this book explores how indigeneity, gender, and culture intersect in disaster recovery practices on the ground. It highlights the urgent need for disaster policies and practices to account for the diverse cultural, social, economic, and political factors that shape Indigenous experiences of disaster impacts and recovery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAyusha Bajracharya\u003c\/strong\u003e is a development Geographer and Policy Analyst, with expertise in Indigenous knowledge and disaster resilience.
