Coastal people getting safe water
Bangladesh is one of the most vulnerable countries to climate change, as well as one of the most disaster-prone countries. Bangladesh’s flat topography, low-lying and climatic features, combined with its population density and socio-economic environment, make it highly susceptible to many natural hazards, including floods, droughts, cyclones and earthquakes.
The Sundarbans (world’s single largest mangrove forest and UNESCO World Heritage Site) is situated in a region prone to a high incidence of cyclonic storms. Recent disastrous cyclone Yash has created a deep sore to the life of local community. BEDS, together with the Village Disaster Management Committee (VDMC) members are working to mitigate the misery of vulnerable people. They are providing drinking water and first aid support to the vulnerable people. Also trying to raise fund for their rehabilitation. Beside that disaster preparedness program is going on regularly.
