File Voices of SIDR Survivors: Life stories of surviving victims of Cyclone SIDR
This book is a rare compilation of the unheard life stories of some survivors of the deadly Cyclone SIDR that hit Bangladesh in 2007. Using the actual words of the survivors as far as possible, the book attempts to recount the suffering, courage and attempts of poor women and men survivors to improve their situation and get back on their feet after devastating disasters. Despite their resourcefulness and amazing capacity to adapt and survive, women and men such as these survivors of SIDR in coastal Bangladesh are as yet mostly unseen and unheard - reduced to a number in disaster statistics on loss and damage, and not even this sometimes. Through this documentation we hope to bring to the attention of decision makers and the wider public not only the needs and interests of those left behind in the wake of a disaster, but also their capacity and skills - which is better used in relief and rehabilitation efforts, rather than ignored. GWAPB acknowledges Voice of South Bangladesh for enabling this work, and also the Netherlands Embassy for financing this work.

File Western Africa Regional ToT workshop: Understanding Gender in IWRM
With support of GWA, the African Initiative for Environment Sustainable Network (IFESNET-AFRICA) organized a regional ToT workshop in Asaba, Delta State, Nigeria, from 14-20 September 2008. The main aims of the workshop were to build capacity and increase knowledge and understanding of gender in IWRM with the NGOs and State Governments in Southern Nigeria. IFESNET-AFRICA reports that this region is relatively neglected in development activities whereas the problems, especially as a result of water pollution, are immense. Apart from the detailed programme schedule, the report describes the session contents, the regional specific case studies, group exercises, the field visit and reviews the reactions of the participants in the ensuing discussions. The illustrated report can be downloaded here.
