The project question
What happens to daily functioning and wellbeing after a disaster?
What the portfolio tells us
Across post-disaster settings, the study reports increased functional difficulties, including cognitive, behavioural and psychosocial challenges. Displacement and prolonged recovery compound vulnerability, especially for children and older adults.
Why it matters for practice
Evidence for recovery strategies that integrate mental health, psychosocial support and disability inclusion into preparedness and response.
