It is bounded on the north and east by Rampal upazila, on the south by Mithakhali and Chandpai union and on the west by Chandpai union and Mongla River. It is 11 km away towards north-east from Mongla Upazila head quarter and 72 km from district HQ. The present UP chairman is Nurgena Begum and she has been observing the responsibility with proper care. The union Parishad is consists of UP Chairman, nine ward members and three women members; they are elected by direct peoples vote. The union has a permanent UP office (union complex building) but the relevant GOB section staffs are not seating in the union complex building. Total area of the union is 15.4554 sq. Km. This union is moderate disaster prone area for Cyclone. 1.2 Socio-economic condition: More than 55% (approx. by UP representatives) of the inhabitants of the Union have been living below poverty line which is more or less same as other rural areas of Bagerhat district. Main occupations of the population are fish culture, fishing, day labor, agriculture, and honey collection from the Sundarban forest. The main crops are paddy, vegetable and main export item is Fish (Shrimp). Fish (shrimp) culture and daily labor are considered as major livelihood and children are engaged in those activities. The main concern of education for Children is their deprivation from their rights. There is no government and private Bank but there is one village market in the Union. brac, Rupantar, Dhaka Ahsania Mission, World Vision and some others NGOs are involved in micro–credit/financing program in the Union. The overall socio-economic condition of the community people is not good at all. 1.3 Geography: The union is located in the east bank of Passur River and very close to Mongla (Chalna) Sea port. It lies bounded on the north by Rampal Upzila, on the east by Mithakhali union, on the south by Sundarban union and on the west by Chandpai Union. 1.4 Disaster/Vulnérabilités: Sonailtala union is moderately disaster prone area for Cyclone and tidal surge due to this union is close to Bay of Bangle. It is Situated by the bank of the big river passsure but the enbankment was washout during disaster AILA 25 May’ 2009. Cyclone and tidal wave hits almost every year and affects the people, damages their houses and crops and increase their sufferings which make them poor/ultra-poor. In the rainy season fish farmers loss their fishes due to overflow of water and paddy, vegetable and other crops usually get ruined for water logging’. There are three (03) Cyclone shelters and capacity is 1450 only but they have no any killa(fort) for animal protection. Cyclone Preparedness Programme (CPP) is working here from last year on cyclone preparedness and early warning system. They have 9 units of trained and well equip volunteer (male-90 and female 45) P a g e | 5 1.5 Hard-to-Reach Areas, villages and communities: There is no hard to reach area in this union. Internal communication is almost good in dry season but not so good in rainy season. The union has 7.00 km carpeting road, 6 km brick soling road and 40 km earthen road. Earthen roads are totally non useable for Rickshaw/van even not possible to walk in the rainy season. Motor cycle, Tom tom, and Rickshaw/van are usually used as vehicle within the union. Sometimes people face difficulty to get health service specially ANC service due to long distance in between FWC, CC and community.

  • ERR) Mongla Economic Zone
    Environment Review Report (ERR) Mongla Economic Zone. Introduction : The Bangladesh Economic Zone Authority (BEZA) is an agency of the Government of Bangladesh (GoB) and is administered out of the Prime Minister's Office. The GoB is in the process of creation of Economic Zones (EZ) across the country for both export and local market oriented industries based on the cluster principle of the collection of industries, brought together geographically for the purpose of promoting economic development. Mongla Economic Zopne in Bagerhat is one of them. Drawing from numerous successful examples from around the world as well as Bangladesh‟s own positive experience with the EPZ model, GoB has launce an effort to develop a new EZ paradigm for Bangladesh based on good economic and social practices in their operation and commercial principles in their development and management. In doing so, the GoB is seeking to leverage its own resources through public-private partnership in the financing, developing, management and servicing of EZs. A key objective of EZs is to stimulate efficient use of skilled labor, land, infrastructure, energy and other resources as well as to facilitate backward, horizontal and forward linkage with local industries. It is expected that the EZs will trigger a significant flow of foreign and domestic investment leading to generation of an additional economic activity and creation of employment opportunities. The overall objective of the project is to develop BEZA in to a fully functional organization equipped with the rules and regulations needed to develop zones that will facilitate growth in investment in the emerging manufacturing and services sectors of the economy with the aim of generating employment.

The Project Management Unit is especially thankful to Dr Stephan Baas, Lead Technical Advisor (Environment, Climate Change and Bioenergy Division (NRC), FAO, Rome) and Dr Ramasamy Selvaraju, Environment Officer (NRC Division, FAO, Rome) for their overall technical guidance and highly proactive initiatives. The final document and the development of the project outputs are direct results of their valuable insights received on a regular basis. The inputs in the form of valuable information provided by Field Officers (Monitoring) of four coastal Upazilas proved very useful in compiling the report. The reports of the upazilas are very informative and well presented. In the course of the study, the discussions with a number of DAE officials at central and field level were found insightful. In devising the fieldwork the useful contributions from the DAE field offices in four study upazilas and in district offices of Khulna and Pirojpur was significant. The cooperation with the responsible SAAOs in four upazilas was also highly useful. The finalization of the study report has benefited from the valuable inputs, comments and suggestions received from various agencies such as DAE, Climate Change Cell, SRDI (Central and Regional offices), and others.

  • 5 Brackish-Water Shrimp Cultivation Threatens Permanent Damage to Coastal Agriculture in Bangladesh
    5 Brackish-water Shrimp Cultivation Threatens Permanent Damage to Coastal Agriculture in Bangladesh Md. Rezaul Karim Urban and Rural Planning Discipline, Khulna University, Khulna, Bangladesh, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract Over the past 20 years, brackish-water shrimp cultivation in the coastal zone of Bangladesh has con- tributed increasingly to the national economy, but there is a lack of quantitative data on the effects of shrimp farming at the household and community levels. This chapter investigates the impact of shrimp cultivation on the environment and farmers’ livelihood in a typical subdistrict of the coastal zone in Bangladesh. The variables involved with shrimp cultivation and their impact on the land are also taken into consideration and an attempt is made to analyse the patterns of land-use change that occurred between 1975 and 1999. The extensive pattern of shrimp cultivation is achieved by expansion of area rather than by intensification. The expansion of shrimp farming has resulted in decreases in crop produc- tion and many environmental problems in the form of a shortage of livestock fodder, fuel scarcity and decreases in traditional labour forces. Under the present circumstances, shrimp cultivation is no doubt beneficial for a selected group of people, but it has negatively affected the livelihoods of landless and marginal farmers, making it difficult for them to survive in the area. Introduction Bagerhat), is one of the most promising areas for shrimp cultivation for two major reasons The Bangladesh coastal zone (Fig. 5.1) is a sig- (MOFL, 1997; Karim and Shah, 2001): first, its nificant maritime habitat of ecologically rich fresh- and saltwater resources are abundant and economically important natural resources.
