Implication

Randomized trial investigates gendered experiences in temporary housing, highlighting structural inequalities and resilience strategies.

Key Points

  • To explore the gendered aspects of life in temporary housing post-earthquake and highlight implications for disaster recovery.
  • Conducted semi-structured interviews with 35 households and 16 public officials in four temporary housing areas.
  • Adopted a feminist urban planning perspective to analyze the governance and design of temporary housing.
  • Examined how care and social dynamics in temporary housing settings reproduce gender inequalities.
  • Women were largely excluded from decision-making processes in temporary housing governance.
  • Intensified caregiving responsibilities were reported due to inadequate infrastructure, increasing women's unpaid labor.
  • Identified resilience practices among women that help sustain community life despite institutional exclusions.
