We are so fortunate to work with @delkaelina, GeoHazards International’s #DominicanRepublic Representative. A highly skilled #StructuralEngineer, she is inspired by networking with other women who are leading the way in #DisasterRiskReduction.

Women are often main caregivers & their evacuation during a #tsunami or #typhoon can be delayed as they consider others. Understanding helps in thinking through interventions, also for children, the elderly, and those with special needs in their care. #AccelerateAction #IWD2025
