Witnessing a Great Fire Through Female Eyes: A Phenomenological Study
The study revealed that women were equally engaged in firefighting efforts as men and also played a crucial caregiving role, offering support to affected individuals. These dual roles reflect both their resilience and the emotional burden they carried. The findings underscore the significant psychological impact of wildfires on women and highlight the necessity of integrating gender-sensitive approaches in disaster response and recovery efforts.
