Long-term physical health impacts of disasters
This paper looks at the impact of the 2006 Yogyakarta earthquake on physical health outcomes 18-24 months after the event. The data come from the longitudinal Indonesia Family Life Survey 2000 and 2007 for a sample of around 4400 individuals representing those affected by the earthquake and a carefully constructed control group. Health outcomes are measured using an index capturing long-term health (Activities of Daily Living), physical pain, sle…
Short and medium-run effects of the Indian Ocean tsunami on health costs in Indonesia
This paper looks at the direct and indirect health-related monetary costs that households incurred in the short and medium terms because of the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami. The paper uses three rounds of a longitudinal household survey of Aceh and North Sumatra where data were collected 5–17, 18–30, and 31–40 months after the event. The results show that direct costs, measured by out-of-pocket health expenses, increased significantly by a third (35…
Business recovery in Aceh and North Sumatra following the Indian Ocean Tsunami
This paper looks at patterns in business recovery two years after the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami using longitudinal household survey data for Aceh and North Sumatra gathered 5–14 months and 17–28 months after the event. The base sample contains 2879 households. Applying a weighted probit model that controls for pre-tsunami characteristics the paper finds that the probability of households discontinuing businesses two years after the event increase…
Impact of future tsunamis from the Java trench on household welfare
This paper presents the first end-to-end example of a risk model for loss of assets in households due to possible future tsunamis. There is a significant need for Government to assess the generic risk to buildings, and the concrete impact on the full range of assets of households, including the ones that are key to livelihoods such as agricultural land, fishing boats, livestock and equipment. Our approach relies on the Oasis Loss Modelling Framew…

Intrahousehold Allocation of Education Expenditure
This article uses conventional Engel curve demand analysis, as well as a double hurdle model, to explore whether there are intrahousehold differentials in the allocation of education expenditure between boys and girls in rural Sri Lanka. Contrary to the case in most developing countries, in Sri Lanka, there was a significant bias favoring girls for 1990–91 and 1995–96 for age group categories 8–9, 14–16, and 17–19, and in 2000 for age group categ…
Persistent Stunting in Middle Childhood

It finds the key factors that help a child move out of being stunted are mother's education and coming from the more prosperous region of Coastal Andhra. In contrast, the key factors that pushed a child into bein…
