皇冠体育app erosive effects of small disasters on household absorptive capacity in Niamey: a nested HEA approach

皇冠体育app paper proposes a household resilience assessment tool piloted in Niamey, Niger

Abstract

皇冠体育app paper proposes a household resilience assessment tool that incorporates elements of the Household Economy Approach (HEA) to provide potential for a joined-up rural鈥搖rban output, but that includes additional data and specific analytical approaches in recognition of urban contexts.

皇冠体育app tool is piloted in Niamey, Niger. 皇冠体育app experience showed collection of the required data to be challenging. Results identified low levels of resilience amongst flood-exposed households associated with inequalities in social capital ties and variable access to food and security postflood.
