Assessing sponginess for urban resilience planning in metropolitan cities of Bangladesh
Urban sponginess refers to a city's capacity to absorb, store, and gradually release stormwater through blue-green infrastructure such as wetlands, ponds, and permeable surfaces. This capacity offers a promising framework for building flood resilience in rapidly urbanizing cities. Operationalizing this concept, however, requires a reliable baseline measure of sponginess to guide planning and policy decisions in flood-prone metropolitan areas. Thi…
Remote Sensing–Based Spatiotemporal Modeling of Land Use Land Cover Changes and Associated Risks in Coastal Ecosystems
Rapid urbanization and land use and land cover changes (LULCCs) pose significant challenges to sustainable urban development and climate-resilient cities in coastal regions around the world. This study employs stochastic and numerical approaches to investigate the spatiotemporal patterns of LULCC and their socioeconomic impacts in three rapidly urbanizing coastal districts (Khulna, Satkhira, and Bagerhat) of Bangladesh from 1992 to 2022. Exploiti…
Clustering and visualisation of the Gabriel network expertise in the field of infectious diseases
INTRODUCTION: The Global Approach to Biology Research, Infectious diseases and Epidemics in Low-income countries (GABRIEL) network is an international scientific network of 21 centres coordinated by the Merieux Foundation (Lyon, France). Mapping and characterising the similarities and differences in expertise and activities across four major infectious diseases (tuberculosis, antimicrobial-resistant infections, acute respiratory infections and em…
Examining the link between marginality and differential climate resilience among disaster-affected communities in southwestern Bangladesh
This article uses a case study of one of Bangladesh’s most disaster-prone subdistricts to examine the role of marginality in determining differential climate resilience. It used a quantitative research design and a household questionnaire survey to acquire data. In order to determine the contributing factors and quantify the magnitude of the influence, ordinal logistic regression is utilized in conjunction with principal component analysis (PCA).…
Evaluating community vulnerability and co-management strategies in the Sundarbans forest-dependent region of Bangladesh
The study focused on evaluating the inherent vulnerability of forest-dependent communities in Chila Union, Mongla Upazila, Bangladesh, using the Socio-economic Vulnerability Index (SeVI). The primary aim was to assess the social vulnerability of these communities that rely on the Sundarbans’ resources for their livelihoods. To achieve this, the study employed a quantitative research design that included a household survey of 100 households to gat…
Assessing the effectiveness of a rights based approach for pro-poor Wash services
Gender-responsive disaster risk reduction strategy at the community level
Evaluating resilience of coastal communities upon integrating PRISMA protocol, composite resilience index and analytical hierarchy process
Nexus Between Vulnerability, Livelihoods and Non-Migration Strategies Among the Fishermen Communities of Sundarbans, Bangladesh
This article investigates the reasons behind the non-migration of fishermen communities living adjacent to the Sundarbans in Bangladesh. In addition to the livelihood strategies of these communities living in the southern districts of the country, this article explores a symbiotic relationship among livelihoods, risks and natural resources in understanding the fishermen’s choice of locations in these vulnerable areas. We have adopted a mixed scie…
Investigating critical relationships among vulnerability, livelihoods, and non-migration strategies at the fishing communities in the Sundarbans
Employing multi-criteria decision analysis and geospatial techniques to assess flood risks
Exploring the relationship between distinct identity formation and urban climate displacees in a post-migration context
Revisiting disaster preparedness in coastal communities since 1970s in Bangladesh with an emphasis on the case of tropical cyclone Amphan in May 2020
Adaptation to climate change as resilience for urban extreme poor
Getting By or Getting Ahead
This study goes beyond the conventional evaluative measurement of involuntary resettlement impacts by utilizing the institutions interventions perspective and social capital theory as tools for understanding the extent to which resettled populations in the Philippines and Indonesia are able to restore their socio-economic well-being. The paper outlines how the interplay between the resettlement inputs and social capital changed from the first yea…
