Cyclone Amphan women-led response
Shathi holds up a sign that says "Stay safe. Stay well." Shathi's community in Bangladesh was impacted by Cyclone Amphan. ActionAid worked with her family before the cyclone made landfall to prepare and take shelter. That preparation made a difference - their roof was lost in the storm, but Shathi and her family were safe. Now, Shathi's family and many in their community are receiving cash support through ActionAid so they can stay safe and well as they build back stronger from Cyclone Amphan and continue to navigate the COVID-19 pandemic.
