Context analysis:
Bangladesh, mostly by the virtue of its geophysical features, is a disaster prone
country which coupled with the global climate change poses a major threat for
its residents and their livelihoods.
Natural disasters have been a major problem faced by the country.
In the year 1988 or more recently the cyclone SIDR which affected almost nine
million people.
The geographical location is the main reason behind the different types and
frequency of the disasters; especially the natural features make it prone to
cyclones, tornadoes and storm surges.
Bangladesh has three main rivers flowing through which forms the largest
delta in the world, these rivers are the Ganges, the Meghna and the
Brahmaputra (GMB). The delta has flat territory with many other rivers
flowing through it, which along with the above three rivers bring a vast
amount of water and sediments .
This process of carrying sediments has been taking place since the Miocene
age and this in turn helped in the growth of the Bangladesh .
COUNTRY PROFILE
Ranks globally among the most climate vulnerable
nations
Fifth rank in the world risk index 2012
DROUGHT - Affects about 8.3 million of land.
FLASH FLOOD - Unpredictable, uncertain.
FLOOD - Inundates more areas, increases river erosion, breaches
embankments, damages infrastructures.
Bangladesh is a
flood prone
country because
of its typical
geographical
location and
being placed in
the delta formed
by the Ganges,
the Brahmaputra
and the Meghna
rivers
