“…Five qualitative studies (Botor Joel & Brozula, 2017;Espina & Canoy, 2021;Hugelius et al, 2017;Nguyen, 2019;Tuazon, 2018), four quantitative investigations (Batool, 2015;Hamama-Raz et al, 2017;Hickman et al, 2021;Liang et al, 2023), one report (Valerio, 2014) and doctoral thesis (Kwan, 2018) identified various mental health outcomes (e.g., sleep quality, insomnia, well-being, eco-anxiety) associated with experiencing post-natural disasters. The personal experiences associated with climate events were collected among mothers, health professionals, young women, and students.…”

The Philippines are at the forefront of climate change impacts, including those related to health, and well-being, but information on mental health and well-being are typically underreported. To help address this research lacuna, we conducted a systematic literature review. We aimed to provide an overview of current research knowledge and research gaps regarding the impacts of climate change outcomes on Filipinos’ mental health and well-being. Consulting 8 databases, we identified 951 records. The final analysis included 32 studies: 15 quantitative, 11 qualitative, 2 longitudinal, 2 experimental, as well as 1 published report, and 1 literature review. A narrative synthesis has been performed to synthesize the findings from included studies. Studies were presented in four sections: 1) Risks to mental health following a natural disaster, 2) Determinants of post-traumatic stress disorder risks, 3) Resilience and post-traumatic growth following natural disasters, and 4) Personal experiences and other mental health outcomes. Reviewed data show that climate change outcomes strongly and negatively impact Filippino’s mental health and well-being. Climate change outcomes also, negatively affect mental health through indirect (e.g., sleep disorders) and long-term pathways for example by being exposed to stressors such as migration, conflict, and violence. A set of coping strategies were identified which include banding together, mobilizing health experts, expanding the local relationships with health workers. Finally, a set of recommendations have been proposed to help the Philippines build a climate-resilient public mental health.

“…As in many disaster contexts, over the course of typhoon Haiyan women and girls not only faced exacerbated health and hygiene challenges, but also suffered increased sexual violence and abuse (Sherwood et al, 2015, pp. 58–59; Valerio, 2014). There were also reports that human traffickers were able to capitalize on conditions of relaxed border controls, displacement and loss of livelihood to intensify existing practices of recruitment into forced labour – including sex work (Tesfay, 2015).…”

“…In this section we have been observing the improvisational hustle – at work in Mumbai, Dhaka, New Orleans, Jakarta, or the Philippines’ Tacloban City – through which resourceful but under-resourced people endure environmental hardship. If Haiyan’s ground-level ‘stories of hope, courage, creativity, and empowerment’ are representative of the way the people in so many low-income, under-resourced regions manage to endure catastrophe (Valerio, 2014, p. 156; see also Sherwood et al, 2015, p. 46), so too is it vital to recognize that ‘grassroots’ does not simply imply local: the Philippines case being a reminder that capacities for care now flow and circulate as globally as the components of climate itself.…”

‘Floods’ of migrants, flows of care: Between climate displacement and global care chains

This article explores the growing interface between climate-induced mobilities and participation in ‘global care chains’ under conditions in which climate change is already impacting on lives and livelihoods – especially in the Global South. The authors reconsider discourses on ‘climate migration’ in the light of everyday caring practices and adaptive responses to climate stress, evaluating how climate policy interferes with ‘grassroots’ flows of care. Early engagements tended towards alarmist predictions of mass climate-induced displacement, triggering proposals to ‘secure’ potential host nations against anticipated influxes. Recently, apparently more sober approaches have emerged, promoting labour migration as contributing positively to climate ‘resilience’. These new approaches encourage more able and resourceful people from under-resourced, climate-vulnerable regions to join trans-local or transnational labour markets – which often equates with predominantly female care workers entering global care chains. Effectively, this means that those best equipped to provide care in places where it is most urgently needed end up providing care in relatively privileged, less climate-vulnerable places. Questioning the climate justice implications of this mobilization against the gradient of vulnerability, the authors offer suggestions about how climate policy could actually support caring practices in the places where ordinary people struggle at the sharp edge of climate change.
