The authors focus on internally displaced climate migrants and settlement dwellers enduring urban climate vulnerabilities in Bangladesh, and combine their ethnographic observations with policy content analysis to examine how structural inequities persist through policies in Bangladesh’s climate adaptation context.
Through 60 semi-structured interviews of individuals from four communities in the Kalapara region, the paper examines the complex dimensionality of non-migration as a form of place relations.
By exploring the relationship between economic growth, urbanization, energy consumption, trade openness, human capital and ecological footprints for the period 1972–2018 in Bangladesh, this study has examined the validity of the EKC hypothesis.
Utilising the latest edition of the Bangladesh Integrated Household Survey (BIHS) to understand the determinants of food security and the Food Insecurity Experience Scale (FIES) to measure household food security, this paper examines how natural disaster shocks affect the food security of rural households in Bangladesh.
In this Review, the authors develop a conceptual model to guide research on the three-way nexus between climate vulnerability, migration, and health. The authors apply their conceptual model to a range of case studies, including Bangladesh, Mexico, Myanmar, and the USA to illustrate that climate vulnerability-migration-health interlinkages are context specific, varying by political, economic, demographic, social, and environmental factors unique to each population and place.
Urbanization-led changes in natural landscape often result in environmental degradation and subsequently contribute to local climate variability. Therefore, apart from global climate change, Dhaka city’s ongoing rapid urban growth may result in altering future local climate patterns significantly. This study explores transition relationships between urbanization (population), land cover, and climate (temperature) of Dhaka city beginning in 1975 through to forecast scenarios up to 2035. Satellite image, geographic, demographic, and climatic data were analyzed.
Using an exploratory methodology, including analysis of grant allocation by different funding entities in Bangladesh that are engaged with climate‐resilient development interventions, this study synthesizes the climate change policies, strategies, action plans, and climate finance systems In Bangladesh in line with the different resilience paradigms in spatial, racial, ethnic, and social exclusion perspectives and examines climate justice hypothesis in a resilient food security system.
This study explores transition relationships between urbanization (population), land cover, and climate (temperature) of Dhaka city beginning in 1975 through to forecast scenarios up to 2035.
This is a qualitative study that argues that gendered constraints in both inhabiting and shaping spaces is an underlying cause of differential climate resilience among the urban poor in Khulna, Bangladesh.
This article seeks to clarify the potential approaches to extending the policy space regarding climate migration in Bangladesh through a political economy lens.
