Shelter from The Storm: A Systematic Review of Entrepreneurial Approach to Crisis

Abstract

The frequency and severity of disasters have recently increased. Disaster mitigation approaches have  gained interest in diverse fields. This review examines entrepreneurial actions during crises from an  entrepreneurial perspective, focusing on non-economic crises such as earthquakes, volcanoes, and  pandemics. Using a systematic review methodology and PRISMA guidelines, 91 articles were analyzed  through narrative synthesis. The results show that building social capital and entrepreneurial activities  through social bricolage is crucial for community resilience. This review emphasizes a socially engaged,  context-specific approach to disaster mitigation that promotes novel and sustainable interventions.
