Background, Socio-economic condition, Disaster vulnerability, Hard-to-reach area 1.1 Background Under Bagerhat district Mithakhali is a Union of Mongla Upazila. The Union was established in 1960. Once upon a time Mithakhali union was a part of the Sundarban forest area. It is 15 km away towards south-east from Mongla Upazila and 75 km from the district head quarter. The first Chairman of the union parishad was Mr. “Abu Bakar Siddique” came from Mithakhali village so the name of union is Mithakhali. Mr. Gazi Azher Ali is the present UP chairman and he has been performing the responsibility as up chairman from May’ 2011. Currently Union Parishad (Council) is consists of UP Chairman, nine ward members and three women members, was elected by direct vote of the people. The union has no a permanent UP office but they have a temporary office located at Goalir Math village which is in ward # 05. Total area of the union is 34.4237 sq. Km. 1.2 Socio-economic condition: Like other rural areas of Bagerhat district more than 60% (approx. by UP representatives) people are living below poverty line. Main occupations of the population are fishing, fish culture, day labor, agriculture and honey collection from the Sundarban forest. The main crops are paddy, vegetable; banana and main export item is Fish (Shrimp). Fishing and fish (shrimp) culture are considered as major livelihood; children are also engaged in those activities. Children are deprived from their rights which are the main hindrance case of their education. There is no government and private Bank in the Union but there are three big village markets. There are brac, CODEC, Dhaka Ahsania Mission, SHEBA, World Vision and some others NGOs who are involved in micro–credit/financing program. Overall the community people socio-economic condition is poor. 1.3 Geography: It lies bounded on the north by Sunaitala union, on the east by Morelgonj Upazilla, on the south by Sundorban union and on the west by Chandpai Union. 1.4. Disaster/Vulnérabilités: Mithakhali union is a disaster prone area and gets affected very often by Cyclone and tidal surge due to this union is close to Bay of Bangle. The “Mathertala” River is flowing through the east side of this union and the embankment are not reconstructed after 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 push them below P a g e | 5 poverty line. In the rainy season fish farmers loss their fishes due to overflow of water and paddy, vegetable and other crops usually inundate by water logging’. There are Twelve (12) Cyclone shelters with the capacity of only 15000 but there is no any earthen killa in the Union for the protection of Animal. Cyclone Preparedness Program (CPP) is working here from last year on cyclone preparedness and early warning system. 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 with 2.50 km carpeting road, 37.00 km brick soling road and 54.00 km earthen road. Earthen roads are totally unusable for Rickshaw/van even not possible to walk in the rainy season. Motor cycle and Rickshaw/van are usually used as vehicle within the union. People are to face difficulty to get health service sometimes specially ANC service due to long distance in between FWC, CC and community. Distance and communication mood are as below; (Distance are counted from UP office to the middle of respective village) Ward Name of Village Distance from Mood of Communication # Union Parishad 1 Mithakhali 8.00 km Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle Purbo Datter Meth 10.00 km Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle 2 Moukhali 9.50 km Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle Sonakhali 9.50 km Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle Pachim Datter Meth 7.00 km Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle 3 Satghariya 8.00 km Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle Bashurkhanda 7.00 km Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle 4 Shahebermeth 3.00 km Jeep /Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle 5 Goalirmeth 1.00 km Jeep /Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle 6 Khonkarer Ber 3.00 km Jeep /Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle Satpukuria 1.50 km Jeep /Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle Khasherdanga 2.00 km Jeep /Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle 7 Khar khariya 3.00 km Jeep /Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle Dhan Khali 3.00 km Jeep /Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle Andariya 5.00 km Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle 8 Totar Danga 4.50 KM Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle Nitakhali 2.00 km Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle 9 Chouri Danga 3.00 km Rickshaw/van, Motor Cycle P a g e | 6 2. Population Profile: 2.1 Population in general The total population of the Union is 17,139 and number of HH is 4292 (Census 2011), and population density is 1024 per Sq Km. But there is a variation on the number of HH of the Union as “the holding assessment 2013” which was conducted by union parishad itself, and number of HH is 4791. Union Parishad claimed that the holding assessment is updated. Around 64% population of this union are Muslim, 21% Hindus and 10% are from Christian religion. The details are shown in the Table 1.1 in the Annex I. Table 1.1: Ward wise Sex disaggregated population data 2.2 Child Population: According to the Census 2011 the total child population in the union from 0 to 19 years are 6,433 which is 36.80% of total population (0-4 is 1,289, 5-9 is 1,761, 10-14 is 2,033 and 15- 19 is 1,347). Community data provides more age specific information than census data and the total child population from 0 to 10 years are 3,474, 0-1 year is 283, 1 to 2 years 293, 5 to 6 years 253 and 6 to 10 years 2645.

  • Livelihood Strategies Across Socio-Economic Groups in Changing Farming Systems: Insights from Salinity Prone South-Western Coastal Bangladesh
    Paper submitted for ICARUS – IV: Theme 2 – Climate and livelihoods of the poor May 7 – 9, 2015, University of Illinois, USA Livelihood strategies across socio-economic groups in changing farming systems: Insights from salinity prone south-western coastal Bangladesh Sonia Ferdous Hoque, PhD Candidate, [email protected] Claire Quinn, Associate Professor, [email protected] Sustainability Research Institute, School of Earth and Environment, University of Leeds, UK Date of submission: 10 April, 2015 Abstract In south-western Bangladesh, the combined effects of climatic shocks and stresses, that is, salinity and cyclones, and anthropogenic resource degradation, arising from shift towards brackish water shrimp cultivation, have resulted in a ‘double vulnerability’ context. However, even within the same context, differential resource endowments cause households of different socio-economic categories to adopt different livelihood strategies. This paper uses evidence from two coastal villages to illustrate how households manage their constraints and opportunities to gain optimum livelihood outcomes. In the first village, where protests by local farmers have stopped shrimp farming since 2008, small and medium farmers are trying to diversify their livelihoods through freshwater prawn-fish-crop integration, while some large landowners favouring the quick cash incomes from extensive shrimp cultivation are planning to shift towards intensive methods. In the second village, where decades of dry season shrimp cultivation has forced farmers to replace

Abstract Water is the most important thing for the survival of human beings because man cannot live without water for a single moment. The coastal region of Bangladesh faces pure drinking water crisis due to saline water intrusion and iron content of tube wells where pond sand filter (PSF) is using as alternative water supply system of southwestern coastal region specially Sudarban region of Bangladesh. This study was conducted to assess the quality of water and evaluate and compare the performance of these technologies at Mongla Upazila of Bagerhat District. For this purpose 24 water samples from six PSFs, eight protected pond (PP) and two reverse osmosis (RO) were collected and analyzed in the pre monsoon season. Different physico-chemical and biological parameters such as pH, electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solid (TDS), salinity, turbidity, ammonium (NH4+), total hardness, total alkalinity, Chloride (Cl-), total coliform and fecal coliform were measured both in PSFs and PP water.

  • Sundarban in a Global Perspective
    PAPER IND 2017 DISCUSSION PAPER SUNDARBAN IN A GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE: LONG TERM ADAPTATION AND DEVELOPMENT THE SUNDARBAN LANDSCAPE IN A GLOBAL SETTING The Sundarban landscape/eco-region formed by the Rivers Ganga, Meghna and Brahmaputra is the tidally active lower part of the largest delta in the world consisting of a warren of rivers, creeks, marshes and alluvial floodplain. Morphological zones of this lower part of the delta are the Ganga tidal plain (West) between rivers Hugli and Baleswar, the Ganga tidal plain (East) between rivers Baleswar and Tetulia, and the Meghna deltaic plain stretching from river Tetulia until Chittagong coastal plain. At the confluence of the delta and the Bay of Bengal, is the single largest mangrove patch of the world spread across about 10,300 sq km of which about 60 percent is in Bangladesh and the rest in India. This mangrove patch is acknowledged worldwide for its outstanding biodiversity, including the Bengal Tiger, and designated as World Heritage Site in both the countries. This littoral mangrove forest besides serving as the habitat for about 200 tigers, accounting for five percent of the global population in the wild, also imparts protection from storm surges caused by tropical cyclones by attenuating the impact of cyclones that recur on sub-decadal time scales in the Bay of Bengal. For the purpose of this discussion paper, the Sundarban landscape/eco-region encompasses the Sundarban Reserve Forest (SRF) of about 6000 sq km (including 1397 sq km of Protected Area (PA)) and the Sundarban Impact Zone (SIZ) in Bangladesh, and parts of Barguna and Perojpur districts outside the SIZ due to their similar characteristics because of presence of tidal channels (Figure 1).

  • Sundarban-In-A-Global-Perspective
    PAPER IND Public Disclosure Authorized 2017 Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized DISCUSSION PAPER SUNDARBAN IN A GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE: LONG TERM ADAPTATION AND DEVELOPMENT Public Disclosure Authorized THE SUNDARBAN LANDSCAPE IN A GLOBAL SETTING The Sundarban landscape/eco-region formed by the Rivers Ganga, Meghna and Brahmaputra is the tidally active lower part of the largest delta in the world consisting of a warren of rivers, creeks, marshes and alluvial floodplain. Morphological zones of this lower part of the delta are the Ganga tidal plain (West) between rivers Hugli and Baleswar, the Ganga tidal plain (East) between rivers Baleswar and Tetulia, and the Meghna deltaic plain stretching from river Tetulia until Chittagong coastal plain. At the confluence of the delta and the Bay of Bengal, is the single largest mangrove patch of the world spread across about 10,300 sq km of which about 60 percent is in Bangladesh and the rest in India. This mangrove patch is acknowledged worldwide for its outstanding biodiversity, including the Bengal Tiger, and designated as World Heritage Site in both the countries. This littoral mangrove forest besides serving as the habitat for about 200 tigers, accounting for five percent of the global population in the wild, also imparts protection from storm surges caused by tropical cyclones by attenuating the impact of cyclones that recur on sub-decadal time scales in the Bay of Bengal. For the purpose of this discussion paper, the Sundarban landscape/eco-region encompasses the Sundarban Reserve Forest (SRF) of about 6000 sq km (including 1397 sq km of Protected Area (PA)) and the Sundarban Impact Zone (SIZ) in Bangladesh, and parts of Barguna and Perojpur districts outside the SIZ due to their similar characteristics because of presence of tidal channels (Figure 1).
