Abstract:
This research report first offers an overview of the methodological approach of HABITABLE qualitative data collection and then a summary of the data collected in each country. We then present a number of the key socio-economic characteristics explored across study sites. Following that, we describe the hazards and adverse climatic or environmental events reported by the interviewees in each community. Next, we describe the main reported coping strategies employed at the community, household, and individual levels as well as the perceptions of our interview partners of the “success” (or not) of these efforts. We then describe the role of migration among these strategies as reported by the interviewees. Finally, we draw comparisons across sites for migration trends as well as coping strategies.
