April 12, 2022
in :  Blog

‘What benefit will we get by talking to you?’ is one of the most common questions residents ask researchers in informal settlements in Bangladesh. Both extreme and slow-onset climate change-induced events are increasing the vulnerability of people, especially those who are already socially and economically marginalised.

in :  Blog

In recent years, cyclones have battered the coastal fringes of Bangladesh, with one following closely after another.
