  • The document highlights the success of the Basundhara Forum, a 148-member women-led cooperative in Bangladesh's Gopalganj district. By combining technical training in alternative livelihoods and disaster-risk reduction with leadership and organisational skills, the forum has increased members' incomes and confidence. By 2015, 80 percent of the forum's women were self-sufficient. Beyond economic gains, these forums enable women to participate in participatory vulnerability assessments and gender-sensitive adaptation planning, while advocating for their needs with local government officials.
