摘要

This study investigates the acceleration of child marriage in natural disaster-prone regions of Bangladesh by employing a scoping review methodology. 41 records published between 2009 and 2025 were identified through a systematic search across multiple electronic databases. Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, and Google Scholar were the key databases, alongside selected foundational academic texts. Eligible sources included peer-reviewed journal articles and relevant conceptual works that focus on the nexus of climate change and child marriage. Data charting was guided by the PRISMA-ScR framework. A three-stage deductive thematic synthesis process was followed for analysis. The research employs an integrated theoretical framework of Feminist Political Ecology (FPE), the Sustainable Livelihoods Approach (SLA), and the Capability Approach (CA). This study addresses the research question: How do natural disasters and socio-economic vulnerabilities intersect to drive the acceleration of child marriage in disaster-prone regions of Bangladesh? The findings reveal a chain reaction where the loss of gendered private space (FPE) and decapitalization of household assets (SLA) converge with the collapse of institutional education (CA) to precipitate marital decision-making as a primary survival strategy. The study conceptualizes environmental stressors as "threat multipliers" that reshape child marriage into a maladaptive coping strategy. Furthermore, this research provides critical insights contributing to the global agenda for poverty and hunger (SDG 1 & 2), health and education (SDG 3 & 4), and gender equality and economic growth (SDG 5 & 8).
