Abstract

This paper examines the claim that the 2006-2010 drought in Syria directly correlates to the high numbers of gender-based violence cases experienced by Syrian women and girls. The effects from the drought had on mental health, security, and migration all resulted in reduced safety for the well-being of women and girls. The Syrian 2006-2010 drought is a cause of climate change and increased tensions leading to the Syrian Civil War. The problems brought by the drought included forced migration, increased poverty, and a disproportionate effect of gender-based violence towards women and girls.
