Presents a case study of the Local Risk Management Programme applied
in various indigenous villages in the south of Mexico; this is considered
good practice because, among other things, it uses an integrated approach.
The programme gives women -- in particular, in indigenous communities in
marginalized areas – the opportunity and the option of better managing risks,
both to people as well as to their belongings.
