  • Non-Timber Forest Products and Livelihoods in the Sundarbans
    Non-timber Forest Products and Livelihoods in the Sundarbans Fatima Tuz Zohora1 Abstract The Sundarbans is the largest single block of tidal halophytic mangrove forest in the world. The forest lies at the feet of the Ganges and is spread across areas of Bangladesh and West Bengal, India, forming the seaward fringe of the delta. In addition to its scenic beauty, the forest also contains a great variety of natural resources. Non-timber forest products (NTFPs) play an important role in the livelihoods of local people in the Sundarbans. In this paper I investigate the livelihoods and harvesting practices of two groups of resource harvesters, the bauwalis and mouwalis. I argue that because NTFP harvesters in the Sundarbans are extremely poor, and face a variety of natural, social, and financial risks, government policy directed at managing the region's mangrove forest should take into consideration issues of livelihood. I conclude that because the Sundarbans is such a sensitive area in terms of human populations, extreme poverty, endangered species, and natural disasters, co-management for this site must take into account human as well as non-human elements. Finally, I offer several suggestions towards this end. Introduction A biological product that is harvested from a forested area is commonly termed a "non-timber forest product" (NTFP) (Shackleton and Shackleton 2004). The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) defines a non-timber forest product (labeled "non-wood forest product") as "A product of biological origin other than wood derived from forests, other wooded land and trees outside forests" (FAO 2006). For the purpose of this paper, NTFPs are identified as all forest plant and animal products except for timber.

  • Accessibility Analysis of Cyclone Shelters - a Case Study for Atulia Union, Satkhira, Bangladesh
    J. Asiat. Soc. Bangladesh, Sci. 46(2): 163-178, December 2020 ACCESSIBILITY ANALYSIS OF CYCLONE SHELTERS - A CASE STUDY FOR ATULIA UNION, SATKHIRA, BANGLADESH TANZIM HAYAT1, A.S.M. MAKSUD KAMAL1, MD. SHAKHAWAT HOSSAIN1*, SAIYEBA ZAMAN1, B.M. RABBY HOSSAIN1 AND TAPAS RANJAN CHAKRABORTY2 1Department of Disaster Science and Management, University of Dhaka, Dhaka-1000, Bangladesh 2Disaster Risk Financing Coordinator, Oxfam Abstract Cyclone shelters are considered as a solution to reduce cyclone risk in coastal districts of Bangladesh. The location of a shelter plays a crucial part in a potential user’s decision- making process. If the perception is that the shelter is too far away, the user may decide not to use it. On the other hand, it would not be financially feasible to construct shelters near every settlement cluster. Therefore, network analysis using GIS has been applied to reveal the optimal location. Apart from distance, there are some other factors (like space, presence of gender segregated rooms and toilets, ramped access way, availability of drinking water, etc.), which affect a user’s affinity to evacuate to a specific shelter. All the shelters in Atulia Union from Satkhira District of Bangladesh were visited to identify these characteristics. Finally, an index was developed to determine the preference of each shelter to its potential users. It was found that there is inadequate number of shelters in the study area and two new shelter locations were recommended. Key words: Cyclone, Shelter, Accessibility, Optimal-Location Introduction The Bay of Bengal is a hotspot for forming tropical low-pressure systems (i.e., the first stage of cyclone formation) (Paul 2009).

  • In-Depth Recovery Needs Assessment of Cyclone Aila Affected Areas
    In-depth Recovery Needs Assessment of Cyclone Aila Affected Areas 25-31 October 2009 Conducted by International agencies (ActionAid, Concern WorldWide, DanChurchAid, MuslimAid, Islamic Relief, Oxfam-GB and Save the Children-UK) currently involved in Aila response programme funded by ECHO 1. Executive Summary : Just over 05 months have passed since Cyclone “Aila” hit Bangladesh( 25 May 2009) but sufferings still continuing in the severely affected districts of Khulna and Shatkhira where more than 201,982 displaced people (70% of severely affected people) are still living in temporary places and shlters. According to the government estimate 1149 million US dollars is needed to assist in the recovery and reconstruction after Cyclone Aila. In addition to the government’s allocation, international humanitarian agencies have only contributed 20 million US dollars (as of 31 Oct’09). According to a recent (Oct’09) study done by the South Asia Association of Poverty Eradication, each affected household has seen their income decrease by approximately 44% as a result of Cyclone Aila. More than 60,000 people have migrated to search employment, as opportunities for income are very limited in the affected areas. Cyclone Aila fully or partially damaged more than 166 km coastal embankment and without repairing the broken embankments, livelihood recovery and people returning to their homes is not possible. While Government, local and international NGOs have been People’s immediate recovery priority; responding in the affected districts, access to safe drinking water and appropriate sanitation is still below Sphere minimum • Embankment repairing standards.

  • Project Proposal
    Village Knowledge and Information Center (VKIC): An Innovative approach to connect donors with local community. The Atulia Union is located at the north eastern part of the Shyamanagar thana under Satkhira district with the total area of 41.01 sq. km. Total population of Atulia union is 30152 in which male are 15190 and female are 14962. In the union, there are thirty one educational institutions in which primary school 21, secondary school 8, and college 2. According to population census, 2001 the literacy rate (7years and over) for the union is 44.59% for both sexes, 54.20% for male and 34.93% for female. The contextual setting of the union like location in the southern part of Bangladesh made it deprived area from the other region of the Bangladesh. Again, disaster like flood and cyclone is very common in this region. Thousands of people remain water clogged in Shyamnagar Upazilla of Satkhira in the aftermath of Cyclone Aila‘s rampage through Bangladesh. Several thousand homes were washed away while numerous agricultural lands and crops were damaged by the tidal surges in low-lying coastal areas and on offshore islands in the Bay of Bengal. Many donor organizations and local NGOs are working for disaster by providing shelters, relief etc but none of them are working for education. Need for the library: Within the Shyamnagar upazila (1968.24 sq km) with a population of 313781, there is neither a public library nor a private one. The nearest library is in Satkhira town which is about 65 km far from the union (please see appendix v).
