Social Inequality Effects of Climate‐Change‐Related Disasters
The impacts of climate change‐related disasters have garnered significant attention in policy discourse and scientific research, particularly in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). However, the impacts of climate change‐induced disaster shocks on social structure and equity (i.e., social inequality effects) in LMICs are under‐researched and poorly understood. We conduct a systematic literature review to better understand how climate‐change‐…
Experience and perception of climatic hazards as drivers for adaptation strategies in coastal communities of Bangladesh
The adoption and implementation of adaptation measures has emerged as a major approach to reducing the impact of climate change and the associated risks to livelihoods. Individual perception is likely to influence considerably the willingness to adopt such measures in response to current and anticipated extreme climate conditions. This study analyzes factors intensifying climatic hazards-induced stress on livelihoods and the underlying motivation…
Participatory forest management in Sri Lanka
Since the 1990s, Sri Lanka’s central government has adopted a Participatory Forest Management (PFM) strategy. However, the success of this approach remains unclear, largely due to the absence of impact assessments. In the present study, a qualitative approach was employed to determine whether Sri Lanka’s PFM strategy is a myth or reality. To this end, an analysis was carried out into the genesis of PFM and the aspects of community inclusion. Two …
Engaging military with domestic disaster response
This study examines the institutional and legal frameworks governing military engagement in domestic disaster response in Canada, the United States, and New Zealand. As climate-related disasters increase, governments are choosing to rely more on military forces for logistical support and emergency response and relief. Through a comparative analysis, this research explores how military assistance is institutionally structured, authorized, and coor…
Land‐based meanings of disaster adaptations from Woodland Cree First Nation, Canada
This paper showcases how climate disaster presents unique challenges to many northern Indigenous communities in Canada. Disasters further exacerbate historical traumas related to colonialism, including forced displacement, land loss, and cultural disconnection. Indigenous cultural barriers and the imposition of external interventions deter effective communication and disrespect Indigenous sovereignty and traditional Indigenous land‐based adaptati…
Role of multi-level institutions in facilitating innovation and adaptation technologies for reducing climate risk and impact
While the role of innovation and adaptation technology in reducing climatic risks is widely recognized, few studies have investigated the role of formal, quasi-formal, and informal institutions in facilitating the adoption of such technology at the local level. The novel contribution of this study is in offering explanations of how local institutions facilitate or create barriers against innovation and implementation of climate adaptation technol…
Social learning and collective action in flood-hazard management in Manitoba, Canada
Transmission of knowledge and social learning for disaster risk reduction and building resilience
The UN Sendai Framework recognized the need for making our communities safer and more resilient to disasters by shifting policy goals from “managing disasters” to disaster risk reduction (DRR) and building resilience. For DRR and building community resilience to disaster shocks, this study posits that social learning, a process of mutual development and sharing knowledge through iterative reflections on experience, is key to changing the conventi…
Social learning, innovative adaptation and community resilience to disasters
Purpose Existing literature on how social learning stemming from flood experience influences management and adaptation to flood-risks, and resilience-building is scant. In this context, the purpose of this study is to map the processes and examine the application of social learning in formulating coping measures and adaptation strategies in Bangladesh's wetland communities. Design/methodology/approach To bridge this research gap, conceptually, we…

“Disasters threaten livelihoods, and people cope, adapt and make transformational changes”
Transformative learning and community resilience to cyclones and storm surges
While it has been widely recognized that building community resilience to climate induced shocks requires learning processes at multiple societal levels, there has been limited research on the specific types of learning required at individual level to influence change and transformation at the community level. To determine how transformative learning and risk-mitigation actions shape community resilience to climate-induced disasters, we carried o…
Social learning for enhancing social-ecological resilience to disaster-shocks
Purpose The plethora of contributions to social learning has resulted in a wide range of interpretations, meanings and applications of social learning, both within and across disciplines. However, advancing the concept and using social learning methods and tools in areas like disaster-shocks requires interdisciplinary consolidation of understandings. In this context, the primary focus of this paper is on the contributions of social learning to di…
Social learning-based disaster resilience
Despite widespread recognition that social learning can potentially contribute toward enhancing community resilience to climate-induced disaster shocks, studies on this process remain few and far between. This study investigates the role of local institutions (formal, informal, and quasi-formal) in creating learning arenas and translating social learning into collective action in flash flood-prone Sunamganj communities in Bangladesh. We follow a …

Social learning for building community resilience to cyclones
Choudhury, M.-U.-I., C. E. Haque, A. Nishat, and S. Byrne. 2021. Social learning for building community resilience to cyclones: role of indigenous and local knowledge, power, and institutions in coastal Bangladesh. Ecology and Society 26(1):5. https://doi.org/10.5751/ES-12107-260105
Ecosystem changes and community wellbeing
The feedback relationships between resource-dependent human communities and their local ecosystem services may result in an undesirable SES dynamic where community wellbeing continually deteriorates. Yet, very little is known about the mechanisms that can facilitate reordering people’s relationship with ecosystem for sustained wellbeing. We argue that innovative approaches built upon local strengths are more likely to succeed in such an endeavour…
Good governance and local level policy implementation for disaster-risk-reduction
Purpose Despite Bangladesh's great strides in formulating disaster management policies following the principles of good governance, the degree to which these policies have successfully been implemented at the local level remains largely unknown. The objectives of this study were two-fold: (1) to examine the roles and effectiveness of local-level governance and disaster management institutions, and (2) to identify barriers to the implementation of…
Man can't give birth, woman can't fish
Going beyond the myths prevalent in the socio-cultural embeddedness of rural Bangladesh, this article examines the diverse visible and invisible roles of fisherwomen in small-scale fisheries. This research considered two ethnic groups situated in two different ecosystems: the floodplain freshwater ecosystem is represented by new-entrant Muslim fishers 'Maimal' and the coastal ecosystem is represented by caste-based Hindu fishers 'Jaladas'. From t…

Public versus expert knowledge and perception of climate change-induced heat wave risk
Effects of climate change and its induced extreme environmental events have been the object of intense public debate in recent years. Extreme environmental events, such as heat waves, and their impact upon the elderly and the poor are of special concern to policy- and decision-makers. However, how the public views these issues is critical for dealing with the associated risks. Recognizing the importance of risk assessments and implementation of m…
Wetland resource management in Bangladesh
In Bangladesh, the state has the legal ownership and absolute control over natural resources, including the public land, forests, animals, water and fishes upon which local communities, consisting of fishers, farmers, daily labourers and other workers, rely heavily for their livelihoods. There is a system in place for fisheries or waterbodies, known as jalmohal administration. Under this system, the real control remains in the hands of the leaseh…
Human Vulnerability, Dislocation and Resettlement
The purpose of this research was to identify and analyse patterns of economic and social adaptation among river-bank erosion-induced displacees in Bangladesh. It was hypothesised that the role of social demographic and socio-economic variables in determining the coping ability and recovery of the river-bank erosion-induced displacees is quite significant. The findings of the research reveal that displacees experience substantial socio-economic im…
Coping with Riverbank Erosion Hazard and Displacement in Bangladesh
As a deltaic plain, Bangladesh annually experiences riverbank erosion hazard due to sudden and rapid channel shifting, particularly in the major floodplain areas of the country. Consequently, valuable cultivable land is lost; also village settlements, markets and towns are destroyed, displacing tens of thousands of people. This paper examines the magnitude of river channel migration and encroachment on land, and the nature of human adjustment sys…
Human responses to riverine hazards in Bangladesh
Vulnerability to Tropical Cyclones
In this article we report the results of a survey conducted in two coastal communities of Bangladesh less than two weeks after they were hit by the severe cyclone of April 29, 1991. It was found that almost all of the surveyed heads of households had received early warnings of the cyclone. Nevertheless, a majority of the respondents did not leave their homes to seek shelter. The two most common reasons given for this passive reaction were (i) fea…

Integrating Conservation with Livelihood Improvement for Sustainable Development
Recent evidence suggests that although reconciliation between livelihood improvement and biodiversity conservation for sustainable development is complex and difficult, it is feasible to attain such a goal. One such experiment was carried out in southeast Brazil to protect mangroves and livelihood enhancement through the development of an oyster producers' cooperative. By employing a mix of qualitative research methods, including a variety of Rap…
Municipal Waste Recycling in Brandon, Manitoba
The municipal waste disposal crisis has received considerable public attention in recent years, particularly as it has become increasingly difficult, both financially and politically, to dispose of the steadily growing volume of waste. With municipalities under pressure to find acceptable alternatives to the traditional forms of refuse disposal ‐ landfilling and incineration ‐ the recycling of household waste has been advocated by policy makers a…
The Dilemma of ‘Nationhood’ and Religion
The volume of migration following the 1947 partition of the Indian subcontinent formed the largest and most spatially concentrated streams of refugees in modern history. This article attempts to compensate for the lack of comprehensive reviews on this issue by, first, surveying studies on population displacements resulting from the partition, and second, critically evaluating this information. The study is composed of four thematic parts designed…
