In developing countries, natural disasters could destroy physical capital and adversely affect human capital accumulation by disrupting individual decisions. Such decisions play a critical role in determining individuals' human capital accumulation process and have a lifelong effect on their happiness and economic prosperity. To better understand how natural disasters affect human capital in developing countries, this dissertation uses the earthquakes in Indonesia as a natural experiment to study how this earthquake affects health, child marriage, and education. For the first chapter, I study how the 2006 Yogyakarta Earthquake a affects water-related acute disease symptoms in the short and long run. By tracking individuals before and after the earthquake, I identify the water identified borne diseases related symptoms decreased significantly one year and eight years after the earthquake. The improved access to safe water, which is the major concentration of the reconstruction program could explain the change, showing the that robust reconstruction program could turn a disastrous event into a beneficial one. For the second chapter, I explore how natural disasters affect the hazard rate of being married before the age of Indonesia from 1990 to 2014. By tracking the migration and earthquake overtime, my coauthors and I show that earthquake resulted in less girls married before age of 18 in the rural area, more girl married in the urban area. This result indicates a graving and pressing needs for local and international governments to implement policies to alleviate negative from the natural disasters. For the last chapter, I explore how the 2006 Yogyakarta affected the total education years and likelihood of finishing different school level in the earthquake affected area.
