COUNTRY SNAPSHOT

The document details CDKN's support for Bangladesh in leading the global debate on loss and damage and its research into climate-induced displacement. It highlights the 'Adaptation Policy Options' project, which collects data on migration in five districts to inform policy, and the 'Action Research on Community Adaptation in Bangladesh' (ARCAB) programme, which focuses on long-term community-based adaptation and monitoring.

• CDKN is assisting Bangladesh in taking a leadership role within the Least Developed Country (LDC) group regarding the global issue of loss and damage, providing technical assistance and research to support the government's international advocacy.
• Research conducted by the University of Sussex and the Refugee and Migratory Movements Research Unit (RMMRU) indicates that climate change has increased the average duration of seasonal migration from six months to nine months due to decreased work availability.
• The 'Adaptation Policy Options' project is gathering qualitative and quantitative data across five districts—Munshiganj, Chapai Nawabganj, and Satkhira as areas of origin, and Dhaka and Khulna as destinations—to address policy gaps in climate-related migration.
• The Action Research on Community Adaptation in Bangladesh (ARCAB) is a long-term programme engaging twenty communities to co-generate knowledge on adaptation and empower communities to conduct their own monitoring through the M+E4CBA framework.
