  • Bangladesh: Gender Equality Diagnostic of Selected Sectors
    Bangladesh Gender Equality Diagnostic of Selected Sectors Over the last 2 decades, Bangladesh has made progress in women’s participation in the labor force, gender parity in primary education, and women’s political representation. Areas of concern include the high prevalence of violence against women, obstacles to women’s access to resources and assets, unequal terms of their labor engagement, and impact of their overwhelming responsibility for care work. The Government of Bangladesh has made policy commitments toward gender equality and established an institutional framework to fulfill these. This publication intends to support the government in its attempt to address persisting gender inequalities and gaps through a multisector approach across policies, programs, and projects. It provides insights into gender issues in urban; transport; energy; and skills, vocational, and tertiary education, and gives suggestions for strengthening gender mainstreaming in projects.

  • Impcat of Climate Change of Brahmaputra River Basin On
    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research, Volume 7, Issue 6, June-2016 ISSN 2229-5518 765 Climate Change (2015) IMPACT OF CLIMATE CHANGE OF BRAHMAPUTRA RIVER BASIN ON URBAN DRAINAGE OF GORANCHATBARI, DHAKA Shahadat Hossain1 A.K.M. Saiful Islam2 Mostafa Ali3 Mustasim Billah4 G.R. Fahad4 Abstract An urban inundation model, combining a storm sewer model SWMM and operations of Goranchatbari pumping station, has been developed to simulate inundation in urban areas due to storm water and outlet pumping station. The movement of water in the studied Goranchatbari watershed is characterized by two components, namely, the storm water flow component and the inundation component. SWMM is employed to solve the storm water flow component and to provide the flow hydrographs for surface runoff exceeding the capacity of the storm water. Drainage by pumping stations at outlets of the storm water system has also been taken into consideration. The parameters of the Goranchatbari model are calibrated and verified for discrete storms. SWAT simulation with extreme scenarios RCP 8.5 over the Brahmaputra basin provided the discharge data of Bahadurabad station. Flood frequency analysis using 20yr, 50yr, and 100yr flood will be conducted for Bahduarabad station and will correlate with Turag River station. The effect of outfall water level due to climate change will be incorporated in this SWMM drainage model to generate future scenarios of study area. The combined study is suitable for analysis of inundation on urban areas due to overflow of storm water and flooding caused by Climate Change. Simulated results can be applied to establish flood-mitigation measures.
