Three crucial questions in all development activities financed by the World Bank are “How much will it cost?” “How will it be paid for?” and “Who pays what?” To help answer these questions, the World Bank undertook a study of utility subsidies in water supply and electricity.2 Although sanita- tion was supposed to be included, the authors quickly found an almost complete lack of data on the topic. As a result, the Water and Sanitation Program (WSP) and the Water Anchor of the World Bank have collaborated in managing this study as a first step to painting a full picture of finance and costs in sanitation. 1 Jamison et al. 2006. 2 Komives et al. 2005. www.wsp.org v Financing On-Site Sanitation Executive summary 1 The problem: Sanitation, large fraction of the cost.

The 2020 floods has some remarkable characteristics in comparison with major floods in the recent past. It started earlier than usual (late June), it lasted more 60 days in some areas and, in Bahadurabad of Jamalpur, the Jamuna flowed at 20.79 m, 17cm above the last water level record set in 1988 according to Floods Forecasting Warning Centre (FFWC). According to the National Disaster Response Coordination Center (NDRCC), one (1) million households were waterlogged. The disruption of services hindered meeting basic needs and, people suffered from hunger, illness, thirst and filthiness. The NDRCC report informs that 5.5 million (highest at 4 August) people were directly affected and, that 1,059,295 households were inundated. Among them, 211,859 families were displaced, and 94,414 people were evacuated in 1,525 shelters. The Department of Public Health and Engineering (DPHE) informs that 928,60 tube-wells and 100,223 latrines were damaged.

The study analysed data from self-reported surveys from 133 members of the sub-district level disaster management committee and government officials working with DRR. Employing the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method, we find that political economy factors explain 68% of the variance in funding allocations. We also show that four categories of political economy factors—power and authority, interest and incentives, institutions, and values and ideas—are significantly influential over the distribution of DRR funding across subdistricts of Bangladesh. Our findings offer important policy implications to reduce the potential risks surrounding political economy influences in fund allocation and advance climate Citation: Islam, Shafiqul, Khondker finance literature.

  • Cropping Patterns in Mymensingh Region: Diversity, Constraint and Potential
    Bangladesh Rice J. 21 (2) : 217-235, 2017 Cropping Patterns in Mymensingh Region: Diversity, Constraint and Potential A Khatun1*, N Parvin1, M M R Dewan2 and A Saha1 ABSTRACT A consistent and comprehensive database on cropping pattern, cropping intensity and crop diversity of a particular area is the prime importance for guiding policy makers, researchers, extentionists and development agencies for the future research and development planning. The study was carried out all the upazilas of Mymensingh region during 2015-16 using pre-designed and pre-tested semi- structured questionnaire with a view to document the existing cropping pattern, crop diversity and cropping intensity. The most dominant cropping pattern Boro−Fallow−T. Aman occupied about one- half of net cropped area (NCA) of the region distributed to 46 out of 47 upazilas. Single Boro cropping pattern ranked the second position which covered 23% of NCA distributed in 45 upazilas. A total of 129 cropping patterns were identified in the whole area of Mymensingh region under this investigation. The highest number of (30) cropping patterns were identified in Pakundia upazila of Kishoreganj and the lowest was (10) in Sreebardi of Sherpur. The lowest crop diversity index (CDI) was reported (0.111) in Mithamoin of Kishoreganj followed by 0.114 at Khaliajuri in Netrokona. The highest value of CDI was observed 0.933 at Dewanganj in Jamalpur followed by 0.920 at Bhairab in Kishoreganj. The range of cropping intensity values was recorded 101-249%. The maximum value was for Hossainpur and minimum for Itna and Mithamoin in Kishoreganj. At a glance the calculated CDI of Mymensingh region was 0.840 and the average cropping intensity was 187%.

  • Rectovaginal Fistula Repair
    Rectovaginal Fistula Repair What is a rectovaginal fistula repair? It is surgery in which the healthy tissue between the rectum and vagina is stitched together to cover and repair the fistula. During the surgery, an incision (cut) is made either between the vagina and anus or just inside the vagina. The healthy tissue is then brought together in many separate layers. When is this surgery used? It is used to repair a rectovaginal fistula. A rectovaginal fistula is an abnormal opening or connection between the rectum and vagina. Stool and gas from inside the bowel can pass through the fistula into the vagina. This can lead to leaking of stool or gas through the vagina. How do I prepare for surgery? 1. You will return for a visit at one of our Preoperative Clinics 2-3 weeks before your surgery. At this visit, you will review and sign the consent form, get blood drawn for pre-op testing, and you may get an electrocardiogram (EKG) done to look for signs of heart disease. You will also receive more detailed education, including whether you need to stop any of your medicines before your surgery. 2. You may also get a preoperative evaluation from your primary care doctor or cardiologist, especially if you have heart disease, lung disease, or diabetes. This is done to make sure you are as healthy as possible before surgery. 3. Quit smoking. Smokers may have difficulty breathing during the surgery and tend to heal more slowly after surgery. If you are a smoker, it is best to quit 6-8 weeks before surgery 4.

  • Cytolytic Vaginosis
    1040 N.W. 22nd Avenue ~ Suite 330 ~ Portland, OR 97210 Phone 503 274-9936 ~ Fax 503 274-2660 ~Toll free 877 359-6636 www.CascadeWomensHealth.org CYTOLYTIC VAGINOSIS What is it? - A vaginal condition that involves an overgrowth of lactobacillus. This bacterium is part of the normal vaginal environment. Cytolytic vaginosis is not an infection. What causes this to happen? - Sometimes we don't know. - Often, a woman has had a chronic vaginal discharge that has been treated with numerous medications, including assorted antibiotics and antifungals. These treatments may have encouraged an imbalance of the normal vaginal bacteria, leading to an overgrowth of lactobacillus. What are some common symptoms of cytolytic vaginosis? - Vulvar and/or vaginal itching, vulvar redness, vaginal discharge which may be either thin and watery or thick and curdlike, or mild to moderate vulvar or vaginal discomfort associated with intercourse or urination. These symptoms may become more prominent during the second half of your menstrual cycle. Is this a sexually transmitted disease? - No. How is it treated? - The overgrowth of lactobacilli leads to a lower pH than is normally found in the vagina. Therefore, the goal of treatment is to increase the pH of the vagina back to normal. - Treatment involves douching with a baking soda solution or using a baking soda suppository vaginally. 1. How to treat using a baking soda douche: a. Mix 1-2 tablespoons of baking soda with 4 cups of warm water. A douche bag, which can be purchased at most pharmacies, is then used to infiltrate the vagina with the solution.
