posted on 2018-06-25, 00:00 authored by RN Krishna, S Majeed, Kevin RonanKevin Ronan, E AlisicThis review synthesizes the literature on how Asia-Pacific children and families living in poverty cope with disasters. A systematic search yielded 26 studies from six low and middle income countries in the region. Findings emphasized the role of socio-economic factors, socio-cultural factors, and indigenous knowledge. Coping strategies related to finances were mostprominently described in the studies, in contrast to health and psychosocial strategies. Substantial gender issues were identified. The review highlights gaps regarding child involvement in research and coping strategies used by children living in poverty.
