Title | Our Community, Our Voice - Lessons from the 2022 Maribyrnong Flood |
Content |
This report has been developed as part of GenWest’s Flood Recovery program.
The stories and insights gained from interviewing flood-affected women in Maribyrnong offer an invaluable perspective on the effectiveness and gaps of disaster response and recovery efforts.
This report contributes to evidence about migrant and refugee women’s experiences of disaster and the impact on their health and wellbeing. In Australia, research on the impacts of disaster on women from migrant and refugee backgrounds is very limited (Minas et al., 2013). This reflects wider patterns in disaster and health planning that tend to exclude the voices of culturally and linguistically diverse communities (Minas et al., 2013; Sullivan et al., 2020).
