Year: 2024
Type: article
Study design: Systematic Review
Abstract: This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the intersections between environmental issues, poverty, and the role of new media, including social media, over the period from 2016 to 2022.By conducting a systematic literature review combined with a bibliometric analysis of keyword co-occurrence, insights into the thematic focus and development trends within these domains were offered.Data were extracted from 46 articles indexed in the Scopus database, identified through the search criteria "environment" AND "poverty" OR in titles, abstracts, and keywords that contain the terms "news" AND "media."Analysis was conducted using VOSviewer v.1.6.18,revealing four prominent research streams within this multidisciplinary intersection: (1) the relationships among population dynamics, poverty, and environmental degradation; (2) examination of factors influencing environmental degradation and the areas most affected; (3) environmental policy frameworks and the processes involved in policy decision-making; and (4) risk mitigation in environmental policy, with a focus on inclusive economic development.This bibliometric analysis contributes to a refined categorization of existing literature and provides a framework for future research trajectories.By tracking the evolution of publications within each identified research stream over the past seven years, four key research questions were proposed to further explore these critical intersections.The findings aim to enhance scholarly understanding of the complex interdependencies among environmental challenges, poverty alleviation, and the transformative impact of media in the digital era.
