dc.description.abstractThis paper presents the results of an econometric analysis used to analyse household adaptation decisions taken in response to extreme climate events such as typhoons and flooding. Adaptation practices undertaken by households can be broadly classified into reactive and proactive measures. Most households are “reactive,” lacking the means to invest in stronger housing units, while many are yet to benefit from having greater access to early warnings. The Economy and Environment Program for Southeast Asia (EEPSEA) supports research and training in environmental and resource economics, enhancing local capacity to undertake the economic analysis of environmental problems and policies.en
