Abstract

The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, to provide insights into research trends in sustainable disaster relief chains. Second, to identify themes and future research direction for advancing theory. Eleven themes were identified which have implications for advancing sustainable disaster relief operations. The categorical analysis intends to explain how aspects related to identified themes impact and pose opportunities for sustainable disaster relief operations. The findings revealed that sustainable disaster relief supply chain management is an understudied yet gradually growing field of research. The recovery phase is particularly less studied from the sustainable disaster relief operations standpoint. This paper outlines a research agenda to inspire researchers focusing on advancing theory and impactful research on sustainable disaster relief operations.
