Vulnerabilities of people with different types of disabilities in disasters: a rapid evidence review and qualitative research
(Wiley, 2025-12-05) Nguyen-Trung, Kien; Thuy, Trinh Thi Thu; Anh, Nguyen Phuong; Cong-Lem, Ngo; Huyen, Do Thi; Diu, Le Thi; Giang, Nguyen Hong; Simon, Michael
Despite the growth of disaster scholarship, the topic of how and why climate-related disasters and extreme weather events vary among people with different types of disabilities remains unexplored. To help fill the gap, this study draws on a larger research project that was co-designed by Water Sensitive Cities Australia at Monash University and the Hanoi Association of People with Disabilities, Vietnam. It utilised the dataset of a rapid evidence review of 33 studies, key informant interviews with 26 local stakeholders, and 52 interviews with people with various disabilities in Hanoi and Nghe An province, Vietnam. Using thematic analysis, we identified eight themes pertaining to socially-constructed difficulties facing people with disabilities: barriers to accessing disaster risk information and warnings; difficulties in understanding emergencies; challenges in communicating needs; evacuation and mobility hurdles; decreased sense of belonging and isolation; increased risk of getting sick; increased risk of developing mental health and behavioural disorders; and disrupted livelihood and loss of income.

Open Educational Resource: Creative Land-based Teaching at Universities with Indigenous Partners
(2025) Caines, Rebecca
This Open Educational Resource is a guide intended to support those working in universities and other educational institutions who are interested in building experiential education opportunities for students and faculty in creative land-based learning and who wish to work with Indigenous partners. This Resource outlines a project that ran at York University (Toronto, Canada) from 2022 to 2025 in the School of the Arts, Media, Performance and Design, at Keele Campus, and at the new Markham Campus. This project was funded by the Academic Innovation Fund at York University, and led by Professors Rebecca Caines, Marissa Largo, Michael Darroch and Hector Centeno Garcia, working in partnership with a newly formed Indigenous Advisory Circle, a number of community partners, and with renowned land-based educator Dustin Brass from The Key First Nation.
