The latter often overlooks the intra-gender differences while assessing gender-differentiated vulnerabilities and capacities. The study strongly recommends further exploration of the intersectionality approach to account for a better understanding of complex gender and power relations, ultimately enhancing policy planning and implementation for more robust approaches.",
