Small island developing states (SIDS) are often at the forefront of climate change impacts, including those related to health, but information on mental health and wellbeing is typically underreported. To help address this research lacuna, paper reviews about under in SIDS. Due major differences literature's methodologies, results, analyses, method an overview qualitative evidence synthesis peer-reviewed publications. The findings show that context have yet feature prominently systematically covering It seems likely adverse impacts linked will affect SIDS peoples. Similar outcomes might also emerge when discussing situations, scenarios, responses, irrespective what has actually happened thus far due change. In inadequate systems stigmatisation diagnoses treatments, as tends occur globally, narratives present opening for conversations addressing issues

The Covid-19 pandemic has magnified existing crises and vulnerabilities, but much remains unknown about how it affected fragile conflict-affected settings. This paper builds on the theory that hazards become a disaster in interaction with vulnerability response policies, yet often lead to renewed risk creation. It is based seven case studies of countries worldwide experienced social conflict at advent pandemic, covering period from March-August 2020. findings show authorities instrumentalised strengthen their control agendas. Responsibility was assumed for lockdowns, this not accompanied by care mitigate adverse effects. Social shaped response, as high levels mistrust complicated implementation measures, while did support community-based coping initiatives.
