A preliminary analysis of disaster and poverty data in Quang Binh, Viet Nam
Friday 20 April 2012
As a follow-up to the first paper ‘A preliminary analysis of flood and storm disaster data in Viet Nam’ *, this Quang Binh case study has provided a more in-depth disaster profile of one particular province, including specific temporal and spatial distribution patterns while using district aggregated data. It also looked deeper into the relationship between disasters and poverty through analysis of various indicators: number of deaths, impact on housing and agricultural produce, poverty rate and the percentage of poor households.
