在气候变化和灾害文献中,儿童和青年通常被视为需要成人保护的自然事件的受害者。这篇文章批评了这种叙述,借鉴了菲律宾和萨尔瓦多的例子,探讨了儿童团体如何通过以儿童为中心的倡议来应对这些问题。这突出表明,必须了解儿童对其生活和生计所面临风险的看法和沟通情况,了解他们在预防灾害和适应气候变化方面作为变革推动者的潜力,以及对儿童参与的理论和实践的影响,特别是在发展中国家。
Children and young people are commonly treated in the climate change and disasters literature as victims of natural events requiring protection by adults. This article critiques that narrative, drawing on examples from the Philippines and El Salvador that explore how children’s groups have responded to such issues through child‐centred initiatives. This highlights the importance of understanding children’s perception and communication of risks facing their lives and livelihoods, their potential as agents of change in preventing disasters and adapting to climate change, and the implications for the theory and practice of child participation, particularly in developing countries.
