Vulnerability of Bangladesh to Climate Change and Sea Level Rise: Concepts and Tools for Calculating Risk in Integrated Coastal Zone Management. Due to locational disadvantages, especially being situated at the tip of the funnel-shaped Bay of Bengal on the south and at the foot of Himalayas on the north, every year it experiences a number of different types of natural calamities, such as flood, cyclone, river bank erosion, drought etc. The government has tried to tackle climate change by developing the UN-mandated National Adaptation Programme of Action (NAPA) in 2005. 120 households were surveyed, each The nexus between poverty and climate change is also a major concern, especially in a country like Bangladesh where lack of resources is a significant problem in both rural and urban areas. Limited financial access hampers Climate hazards pose increasing threats to development outcomes across the world’s coastal regions by impacting infrastructure service delivery. In Bangladesh, vulnerability to climate change is high due to a significant dependence on agriculture. This vulnerability stems not only from its exposure to climate change and intensified extreme weather events but also from the Bangladesh ranks among the world’s most climate-vulnerable countries, facing numerous climate-related challenges.
