The image shows the results of poverty incidence analysis in Eastern Visayas—statistically identified as one of the poorest regions in the Philippines—in the years 2009, 2012, 2015, and 2018. The analysis revealed that the high poverty level in certain "hot spots" was influenced by their vulnerability to frequent typhoons and limited access to national roads. This study by Pantolla and Atibagos-Nacion (2023) provides an evidence-based framework for potentially improving the allocation of government and humanitarian resources in alleviating the poverty issue exacerbated by natural calamities.
