Using information taken from those affected by the 2014 floods in Serbia, this paper identifies and documents gender-specific differences in flood risk. The results of the research show that the most vulnerable groups during natural disasters are the elderly, people with disabilities, single mothers and women who live alone in their households. Illiterate residents (mostly women and Roma) are also included in the vulnerable category.
