BACKGROUND Eco-Social Development Organization (ESDO) has started its journey in 1988 with a noble vision to stand in solidarity with the poor and marginalized people. Being a peoples' centered organization, we envisioned for a society which will be free from inequality and injustice, a society where no child will cry from hunger and no life will be ruined by poverty. Over the last thirty years of relentless efforts to make this happen, we have embraced new grounds and opened up new horizons to facilitate the disadvantaged and vulnerable people to bring meaningful and lasting changes in their lives. During this long span, we have adapted with the changing situation and provided the most time-bound effective services especially to the poor and disadvantaged people. Taking into account the government development policies, we are currently implementing a considerable number of projects and programs including micro-finance program through a community focused and people centered approach to accomplish government’s development agenda and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the UN as a whole.

This research paper considers the Shyamnagar sub-district in the southern part of Bangladesh to analyze the complex issues of the vulnerability of livelihoods in the face of climate change. We conducted a questionnaire survey (n = 156) of approximately 15.6% of households in the study area. Consequently, we collected Geographical Information System (GIS) data and satellite imagery to demonstrate the land-use changes concerning vulnerabilities. A total of 54 indicators were selected to assess the livelihood vulnerability index, considering the demographic profiles, livelihood strategies, social networks, food security, water security, income, physical infrastructures, access to health services, and impacts of natural disasters. The results of the study demonstrate that only 21% of the people in the studied regions are less vulnerable to livelihood impacts in the face of climate change, while 23% of the households remain the most vulnerable.

  • 33Rd WEDC International Conference, City, Country, 2007
    AHMED, JAHAN, BALA & HALL 35th WEDC International Conference, Loughborough, UK, 2011 THE FUTURE OF WATER, SANITATION AND HYGIENE: INNOVATION, ADAPTATION AND ENGAGEMENT IN A CHANGING WORLD Inclusive sanitation: breaking down barriers S. Ahmed, H Jahan, B. Bala & M. Hall, Bangladesh BRIEFING PAPER 1132 During implementation of WaterAid Bangladesh’s current project it became evident that certain populations were unintentionally being excluded – people with disabilities were one of these groups. Social stigmas and access difficulties meant that they were not present in CBOs or hygiene promotional sessions and excluded from decision making activities, resulting in continued open defecation and other unhygienic behaviours. The linkages between poverty and disability are strong, with disability being both the cause and effect of poverty. Without specific activities to address the requirements of people with disabilities the cycle of poverty remains, further exacerbated by continued exclusion from services such as health care, education and water and sanitation. This paper concentrates on the barriers faced by people with disabilities in accessing water and sanitation services and explains how through WaterAid Bangladesh’s recent initiative, a greater understanding on breaking these barriers is strengthening the future interventions. WaterAid Bangladesh — achieving sustainable environmental health WaterAid Bangladesh (WAB) has been working in Bangladesh implementing water, sanitation and hygiene promotion activities since 1986. In 2004 WAB started a 5-year DFID funded project called ‘Achieving Sustainable Environmental Health’ (ASEH) which aimed at reaching the poorest, geographically excluded people living in hydro-geologically difficult areas of the country. In little over 5 years the project has reached nearly 6million beneficiaries with safe and sustainable water, sanitation and hygiene promotional activities in both urban and rural areas.

Through the survey, 24 diseases with their incidence and severity were recorded. The average higher leaf infection in early blight of potato and fruit infection in soft rot of potato were recorded 37% and 39%, respectively. The highest leaf infection (43%) of early blight of tomato that was more frequented (mode) 36% in different locations with ±0.45% ranges (Standard error) for causing the disease as recorded at Sadar Anwara upazila of Chittagong. The highest fruit infection of soft rot of potato (43%) was recorded at Dohazari, Chandanaish upazila in Chittagong. The average of higher disease severity of leaf (27%) and fruit (33%) was recorded in early blight of tomato and soft rot of potato, respectively, and the highest disease severity of leaf (29%) and fruit (35%) was recorded in Phomopsis blight and early blight of tomato and soft rot of potato, respectively. Keywords : Diseases, vegetable, fruit, survey. Introduction Bangladesh is an agrarian country. Its economy is mainly dependent on agriculture. Crop loss owing to the diseases poses a great threat to Bangladesh agriculture. More than 454 diseases in around 100 cultivated crops have so far been recorded in Bangladesh (Anon., 2006). The diseases cause substantial losses to crops.
