  • Gender Relations in Post-Earthquake Kathmandu, Nepal
    MASTER THESIS Gender relations in Post-Earthquake Kathmandu, Nepal Name: Elorry Mahou Student Number: 941025540130 E-Mail: [email protected] Thesis Supervisor: Dr. Elisabet Rasch University: Wageningen University and Research (WUR) Program: Master International Development Studies Specialization: Politics and Governance of Development (PGD) Abstract The earthquake that stoke Nepal in 2015 had a considerable impact on the population as 8,790 people died and more than 22,300 people were injured. Numerous reports and articles address the effect of the earthquake. However, a lack of gendered impact of the earthquake’s assessment and evaluation is observed. This thesis examines how women, and grassroots organizations in Kathmandu, cope with the gendered impact of the earthquake that took place in April 2015 in Nepal. To understand the gendered lived experience of the catastrophe two significant concepts are used throughout the whole research: actor-oriented approach and gendered impact of the earthquake. They allow a bottom-up understanding of the lived experience of women and Nepalese NGOs, as well as their coping strategies on health and safety impacts of the earthquake. This qualitative research is conducted with the help of semi-structured interviews, participatory observation, informal conversations, and photography. It is argued that by using an actor-oriented approach, the thesis shows elements and dynamics of gendered impacts of the earthquake and coping strategies from women and Nepalese NGOs that would not be visible otherwise. The case of the 2015 earthquake shows that the gendered impact of the disaster is multilayered and dynamic and that women were are at a greater risk of health problems and insecurity.

  • URC 2020 Abstract Book
    URC 2020 Abstract Book We are pleased to present the 2020 UNC Charlotte Undergraduate Research Conference (URC) Abstract Book. Even though we had to cancel the URC 2020 because of the COVID-19 outbreak, we still believe it is important to compile and publish the abstracts submitted during the conference registration period. This belief aligns with the mission of the Office of Undergraduate Research (OUR), which is to support undergraduate students through opportunities to communicate their research to the wider community. We would like to thank the five formal sponsors for the URC: Academic Affairs, the Atkins Library, the Belk College of Business Graduate Programs, the Honors College, and the Levine Scholars Program. We also extend a special thank you to the Charlotte Research Institute for their continued support of the Atkins Library Research Awards. The research project abstracts included in this book would not be possible without the commitment of our UNC Charlotte faculty. Indeed, this abstract book represents the dedication of UNC Charlotte’s faculty members who participate as research advisors, mentors, and judges. A big thank you to the faculty for your service to undergraduate research and scholarship at UNC Charlotte. We would also like to especially recognize the conference organizing committee, the staff in the Office of Undergraduate Research, the Bonner Leaders, the Levine Scholars, and the student leaders who all played integral parts in planning for the URC. Most of all, we congratulate our undergraduate researchers for their hard work and research efforts!
