Empowerment or Dependence? Questioning the Long‐Term Effectiveness of Rural Financial Services in Bangladesh
Development interventions, specifically rural financial services, seek to bring positive changes in traditional rural agrarian contexts. However, short‐sighted interventions can cause long‐term societal, environmental, and economic challenges. Drawing insights from long‐term ethnographic research on the social and economic implications of rural financial services in rural Bangladesh, this study cautions that sometimes development interventions by…
Small and mid-sized cities at the centre of climate adaptation in the global South
This viewpoint draws attention to growing evidence of forced out-migration from climate-vulnerable coastal regions in the resource-constrained global South. The process of this out-migration by affected people is not linear, but rather a complex linkage of various social, economic, environmental and political factors. Most of the previous research has primarily focused on large metropolitan areas (e.g. Bogotá, Cairo, Dhaka, Johannesburg, Karachi,…
Who owns the land? Socio-cultural and economic drivers of unequal agrarian land ownership in climate-vulnerable coastal Bangladesh
In agrarian society, land is a critical resource. Not only does access to arable land increase food security and household income, it also provides resources to cope with any environmental stresses. In most cases, in the low-income developing regions land distribution is very heterogeneous. Based on empirical research in coastal Bangladesh, this article explores patterns in land ownership among the local farmers, discussing how gender, ethnicity,…
Adaptation outcomes in climate-vulnerable locations
Adverse climate impacts present a significant challenge for the majority of the world’s population. It is especially true for smallholder farmers in coastal Bangladesh, where some adaptation initiatives appeared to be short-sighted and reproduced further inequity, poverty, and food insecurity. Based on empirical insights, this paper shows how short-sighted climate responses can adversely affect gender equity, illustrated through three adaptation …
Climate Change Impacts in Coastal Bangladesh
Sea level rise, tropical cyclones, saltwater intrusion, and coastal flooding along with many other natural hazards are increasingly common in many parts of the world, and regions like coastal Bangladesh are at the frontline of these impacts. Due, in part, to the ongoing climate crisis, male members of coastal households in Bangladesh are outmigrating temporarily or permanently. Reduced farm productivity can be blamed on this to a large extent. Me…
Rural Accessibility, Rural Development, and Natural Disasters in Bangladesh
Rural accessibility means more than just reliable roads and cost-effective transportation networks. Rural accessibility is critical for achieving social and economic development in low-income developing countries such as Bangladesh where both rural and urban development are constrained by significant infrastructural deficiencies. It is also an important factor that determines the effects of natural disasters on these resource-constrained societie…
