The impact of vocational training on earnings in Bangladesh
In Bangladesh, persistent skills mismatches, limited access to formal training, and the dominance of informal employment continue to hinder earnings growth and increase income inequality. Despite the promotion of vocational training as a crucial policy tool for improving productivity and employability, there remains a dearth of robust empirical evidence on its wage returns. This paper examines the impact of vocational training on earnings in Bang…
Future-making beyond (im)mobility through tethered resilience
Rising temperatures, rising vulnerabilities: Individual and community adaptation to heat stress in urban slums of Bangladesh
Employs the Everyone’s Adaptation (EoA) framework to study heat stress adaptation. • Explores eight conditions shaping adaptation in urban informal settlements. • Finds income and social capital crucial for coping with and adapting to heat stress. • Reveals gendered and age-related barriers to community-level adaptation. • Recommends long-term, inclusive policies for equitable urban resilience. Rising temperatures and intensifying heat stress dis…
How do migration decisions and drivers differ against extreme environmental events
Migration is often understood to be a livelihood strategy to cope with the effects of environmental threats and climate change. Yet, the extent to which migration decisions differ due to the type, severity, and frequency of environmental events has been little explored. This paper employs household surveys in southwestern Bangladesh to explore this research gap. A multinominal regression model is used to simulate reported future migration decisio…
Impact of Rohingya influx on host community’s relations to places in Bangladesh
In harm’s way: Non-migration decisions of people at risk of slow-onset coastal hazards in Bangladesh
Non-migration is an adaptive strategy that has received little attention in environmental migration studies. We explore the leveraging factors of non-migration decisions of communities at risk in coastal Bangladesh, where exposure to both rapid- and slow-onset natural disasters is high. We apply the Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) to empirical data and assess how threat perception and coping appraisal influences migration decisions in farming …
The emergence of residential satisfaction studies in social research: A bibliometric analysis
How do sustainable livelihoods influence environmental (non-)migration aspirations
Livelihood after Relocation-Evidences of Guchchagram Project in Bangladesh
Due to climate change and its consequences to islands and coastal countries, the relocation of the people living in those vulnerable places has received a lot of attention from policy makers as well as academicians. There have been similar kinds of programs running in Bangladesh since the country's independence in 1971, and people who are landless or victimized due to river bank erosion, cyclones, or floods have been relocated under the umbrella …
