Covid-19 Situation Analysis
Main Implementing Partner COVID-19 BANGLADESH SITUATION ANALYSIS CRISIS TYPE:EPIDEMIC MARCH 2021 Better Data Better Decisions Better Outcomes The outbreak of disease caused by the virus known as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV-2) or COVID-19 started in China in December 2019. The virus quickly spread across the world, with the WHO Director-General declaring it as a pandemic on March 11th, 2020. The virus’s impact has been felt most acutely by countries facing humanitarian crises due to conflict and natural disasters. As humanitarian access to vulnerable communities has been restricted to basic movements only, monitoring and assessments have been interrupted. To overcome these constraints and provide the wider humanitarian community with timely and comprehensive information on the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, iMMAP initiated the COVID-19 Situational Analysis project with the support of the USAID Bureau of Humanitarian Assistance (USAID BHA), aiming to provide timely solutions to the growing global needs for assessment and analysis among humanitarian stakeholders.

Delineating the Service Area Of
J. Asiat. Soc. Bangladesh, Sci. 44(2): 137-148, December 2018 DELINEATING THE SERVICE AREA OF CYCLONE SHELTER AND VULNERABLE HOUSEHOLDS USING NETWORK ANALYST TOOL: A CASE STUDY ON SOUTHKHALI UNION OF BAGERHAT DISTRICT, BANGLADESH KHANDAKER TANVIR HOSSAIN* AND MD. HAFIZUR RAHMAN Department of Geography and Environment, Jagannath University, Dhaka-1100, Bangladesh Abstract In Southkhali Union of Bagerhat district in Bangladesh about 47% of the total population is living beyond the service area of cyclone shelters (CS) not only for the carrying capacity of CS but also for the accessibility. Location-allocation tool of Network Analyst tool in ArcGIS determined the service area of each CS in the study area based on its shelter capacity and accessibility. People residing outside the service area of cyclone shelter are highly vulnerable due to low elevation of land and poor housing structure. The location-allocation tool of Network Analyst provided the proper evacuation plan that would identify the shelter location for each household or cluster of population and the evacuation route also. It would also help to find the proper location to build new shelters for unserved community. Key words: Accessibility, Network analysis, Service area, Vulnerable households, Location- allocation tool Introduction Bangladesh is the sixth most disaster prone countries of the world where 97.7% of the total population of 97.1% area are at risk of multiple natural calamities including cyclones (World Bank 2015). Cyclone and storm surge are the most devastating among all the disasters in Bangladesh which devastates lives and properties in coastal areas. Geographic location, the unique natural setting of the country and its tropical monsoon climate make the country more vulnerable to cyclones and storm surges (Paul 2009). -

Storm Surges and Coastal Erosion in Bangladesh - State of the System, Climate Change Impacts and 'Low Regret' Adaptation Measures
Storm surges and coastal erosion in Bangladesh - State of the system, climate change impacts and 'low regret' adaptation measures By: Mohammad Mahtab Hossain Master Thesis Master of Water Resources and Environmental Management at Leibniz Universität Hannover Franzius-Institute of Hydraulic, Waterways and Coastal Engineering, Faculty of Civil Engineering and Geodetic Science Advisor: Dipl.-Ing. Knut Kraemer Examiners: Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. T. Schlurmann Dr.-Ing. N. Goseberg Submission date: 13.09.2012 Prof. Dr. Torsten Schlurmann Hannover, Managing Director & Chair 15 March 2012 Franzius-Institute for Hydraulic, Waterways and Coastal Engineering Leibniz Universität Hannover Nienburger Str. 4, 30167 Hannover GERMANY Master thesis description for Mr. Mahtab Hussein Storm surges and coastal erosion in Bangladesh - State of the system, climate change impacts and 'low regret' adaptation measures The effects of global environmental change, including coastal flooding stem- ming from storm surges as well as reduced rainfall in drylands and water scarcity, have detrimental effects on countries and megacities in the costal regions worldwide. Among these, Bangladesh with its capital Dhaka is today widely recognised to be one of the regions most vulnerable to climate change and its triggered associated impacts. Natural hazards that come from increased rainfall, rising sea levels, and tropical cyclones are expected to increase as climate changes, each seri- ously affecting agriculture, water & food security, human health and shelter. It is believed that in the coming decades the rising sea level alone in parallel with more severe and more frequent storm surges and stronger coastal ero- sion will create more than 20 million people to migrate within Bangladesh itself (Black et al., 2011). -
