SOCIAL-DEMOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS OF THE FLOODING AREAS OF BANJA LUKA WITH THEORETICAL REVIEW OF THE GENDER ASPECT
Abstract
The research included a sample of 38 households in two flooded settlements in the city of Banja Luka - Cesma and Lazarevo. Socio - demographic data, the amount of recorded damage, the characteristics of the facilities, the population awareness about the measures of protection and prevention of local government were analyzed. The theoretical basis of the work relies on the fact that the system is not gender sensitive and that the most difficult task is the recovery of marginalized social groups.
