This review focuses on women and girls
who have been forcibly displaced. Gender inequality is not
left behind when women and girls are forced to flee their
homes. In situations of displacement, women and girls are
most exposed to adversity, and many of the risks they face,
such as gender-based violence, are heightened. Women are
among the most vulnerable, facing a number of challenges
including extreme poverty, lack of access to basic
infrastructure and services, and the impacts of climate
change on livelihoods and human well-being. Internalized
inequality can limit women's ability to overcome
adverse experiences. With that in mind, World Bank projects
must consider the different circumstances of women and
girls/men and boys to deliver benefits to those that need
them most. The objective of this portfolio review is
twofold: (i) to assess how World Bank operations to date
have addressed the different needs of forcibly displaced
women and girls/men and boys in fragile, conflict, and
violence (FCV) contexts; and (ii) to distill lessons and
guidance for task teams, including those designing
operations under the new International Development
Association (IDA18) refugee window and the Global
Concessional Financing Facility (GCFF). The review is
limited to considering how the needs of women and girls have
been addressed, as no operations were found that identified
gender specific needs of forcibly displaced men and boys, or
sought to close gender gaps that affected these men and boys adversely. |
