摘要

背景在撒哈拉以南非洲地区,由于过度暴露于烟雾中,烹饪地点和烹饪燃料的选择会对健康产生不利影响。本研究探讨了家庭层面的烹饪烟雾暴露风险及其相关决定因素。方法采用定量方法,我们汇集了最近几波人口健康调查数据集,共收集了来自撒哈拉以南非洲 33 个国家的 442,339 个家庭的数据。在这项研究中,我们首先构建了烟雾暴露风险的分类措施,确定了家庭易受烟雾暴露风险影响的程度,并调查了相关的决定因素。我们使用有序概率回归法研究了撒哈拉以南非洲地区家庭烟雾暴露风险水平的社会人口和经济决定因素。结果我们发现,有证据表明 67% 的家庭在室内做饭,86% 的家庭使用产生烟雾的燃料做饭,这可能表明家庭极易受到烟雾暴露的影响。不出所料,53%的家庭面临烟雾暴露的高风险。我们的研究结果表明,户主的财富、规模、教育水平和年龄等因素是决定烟雾暴露风险分类指标的关键因素。为了稳健起见,我们将家庭按其城乡位置分组,以确定决定因素的证据。 结论这项研究确定了社会经济特征是决定 SSA 地区家庭炊烟暴露风险水平的重要变量。因此,我们建议该次区域的政策制定者改善清洁烹饪燃料的可及性,尤其是对所有农村家庭而言。有鉴于此,我们建议推广、补贴和执行鼓励家庭使用清洁烹饪燃料的政策。

Household exposure to the risk of cooking smoke: Evidence from Sub-Saharan Africa

Background

In Sub-Saharan Africa, the place of cooking and choice of fuel for cooking have detrimental effects on health due to excessive exposure to smoke. This study explores household-level exposure to the risk of cooking smoke and its associated determinants.

Methods

Using a quantitative approach, we pooled the most recent waves of the Demographic Health Survey dataset yielding 442,339 households from 33 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. In this study, we first construct disaggregated measures of smoke exposure risk, determine the extent of households’ vulnerability to this risk, and investigate the associated determinants. We used the ordered probit regression to examine the socio-demographic and economic determinants of the levels of household smoke exposure risk in SSA.

Results

We found evidence that 67 % of households cook indoors while 86 % use smoke-producing fuels for cooking which, may indicate a high level of vulnerability to smoke exposure. As expected, 53 % of households have a high risk of smoke exposure. Our findings reveal factors such as wealth, size, educational level, and age of household heads as the key determinants of the disaggregated smoke exposure risk measures. For robustness, we grouped households by their rural-urban locations to establish evidence of the determinants.

Conclusions

The study identifies socio-economic characteristics as essential variables in determining a household's level of exposure to cooking smoke risk in SSA. We, therefore, propose to policymakers in the sub-region to improve the accessibility to clean cooking fuels, especially to all rural households. In this light, we recommend the promotion, subsidization, and enforcement of policies to encourage households to use clean cooking fuels.
