Abstract

Disasters do not happen in a vacuum. Instead, they compound upon the inequities already present in every environment in which humans exist. We can no longer neatly separate environmental issues from social justice issues, with the stark recognition that people already socially and economically marginalised bear the greater burden of disasters, and therefore carry the greater impacts of climate change. Just as recognising that the social determinants of health has been a revelation in effectively striving to improve the health outcomes for a range of populations, the social determinants of disaster recovery are also key.
