Abstract The internet and digital technologies have penetrated all domains of people's lives, family life is no exception. Despite being a characterizing feature contemporary change, the digitalization has yet to be systematically theorized. Against this backdrop, article develops multilevel conceptual framework for understanding illustrates by synthesizing state‐of‐the‐art research from multiple disciplines across global contexts. At micro level, as individuals “do” online, influences diverse aspects practices, including formation, functioning, contact. How online not free‐floating but embedded in macro‐level economic, sociocultural, political systems underpinning processes digitalization. Bridging micro–macro divide, family‐focused communities serve pivotal intermediary at meso where people display to, exchange family‐related support with, mostly nonfamily members. Meso‐level are key sites forming diffusing collective identities shared norms. Bringing together three levels, also considers cross‐level interrelations develop holistic ecology life. concludes discussing contributions change advancing scholarship age.

The present study examines perceptions and preparedness for flooding in Greece, a country increasingly impacted by natural hazards, particularly due to the effects of climate change. Despite frequent occurrence floods, public remains insufficient many areas. Through survey 1282 respondents from various regions Greece using R statistical software process analyse data, research explores relationship between individual flood risk perceptions, prior experiences, household-level preparedness. findings show most participants are aware governmental plans, but significant gap exists perceived risks actual preparedness, especially regarding insurance relocation willingness. reveal that majority management plans; however, outcomes concerning willingness relocate highlight efforts. Many expressed dissatisfaction with current measures address risks, leading diminished trust respective authorities. To enhance awareness engagement underscores importance localized communication strategies tailored different demographic groups. Given observed efforts should focus on bridging this disconnect through practical, community-driven initiatives. Recommendations include implementing targeted campaigns, promoting government transparent policies, providing financial incentives such as subsidized encourage protective actions, and, additionally, fostering community involvement disaster management, historically flood-prone regions, strengthen resilience against future events.

Floods represent a significant threat to the livelihoods of individuals and pose challenges global development prospects. An individual’s age is an essential predictor for adopting flood preparedness measures. In this context, present study aims identify community resilience based on age. Two groups were considered analysis, i.e., young group (age less than 24 years) adult over years), using Flood Resilience Index (FRI) approach through five dimensions resilience, natural, physical, economic, social, institutional. The data analysis included 200 respondents, with each compromise equaling 100 from both groups. A total 34 structured questions analyzed FRI dimensions. survey results show that overall in low, but adults are relatively more flood-resilient group. Moreover, all differences between two groups, appearing resilient shows local authorities protection bodies should focus community’s youth regarding risks flooding.

The physical, emotional, and psychological well-being of every individual is negatively affected by disasters. In particular, the aged people, or “Senior Citizens” are susceptible to disproportionate detrimental effects brought upon any form disaster. Thus, this study explored lived experiences senior citizens in disaster their corresponding preparatory mechanisms. Using a qualitative-phenomenological research design, interviewed eleven (11) participants generate mechanism wake use Collaizi’s method was used analysis qualitative data. Analysis data revealed two emergent themes: (1) Disaster-related challenges (2) life security that describe participants. addition, results have shown experience difficulty combating disasters due range disaster-related they encounter. On other hand, most common order combat primarily relates safety measures. preparations need be strengthened ensure needs taken into account local planning community response efforts.

On 28 September 2022, Hurricane Ian pummeled parts of south Florida. Disaster and climate change research has shown that disasters exacerbate inequalities, especially amongst older physically vulnerable people. Florida a large population Veterans managing multiple chronic health conditions receiving long-term care in-home from Health Administration (VA) programs, including Home Based Primary Care Medical Foster Home. To describe how VA staff provided high quality during after the hurricane, caregivers accessed needed healthcare supports post-hurricane, we conducted site visit to Lee County, area in May 2023, conducting N = 25 interviews with staff, Veterans, caregivers. Findings qualitative thematic analysis showed while some experienced significant challenges displacement difficulty accessing oxygen, they felt highly supported by teams. Staff efforts post-hurricane focused on improving coordination anticipation future disasters, around communicating their caregivers, workgroup formed implement changes. As causes more severe hazard events, lessons learned this project can better support adults, before major disasters.

Abstract Shifting demographics—that is, the growing number of older adults in Canada and internationally—and intersecting climatic risks create a complex landscape aging place disaster contexts. Some are vulnerable due to their underlying health conditions limited physical mobility. Yet they also exhibit resilience distinct manner, owing wealth knowledge, wisdom, ability navigate adversities. This article elucidates potential avenues for promoting involvement recovery efforts. Our intention is recognize foster adult mitigate vulnerability by drawing upon insights from study titled “In Aftermath 2016 Alberta Wildfires: The Role Social Work Practitioners Human Service Professionals Long-Term Disaster Recovery.” Employing qualitative research approach, that recruited 51 participants semistructured interviews focus groups. A thematic analysis collected data unveiled pivotal roles played social workers human service practitioners facilitating wildfires research. Notably, three overarching themes emerged concerning promotion adults’ recovery: fostering supportive relationships, building partnerships enhancing collaboration, addressing ongoing challenges. These findings offer valuable into how work professionals can effectively facilitate engagement initiatives. emphasizes significance actively participation mitigation efforts, thereby greater within communities.
