Adaptation dynamics
People living in climate hazard-prone regions have become regular, repeated targets of adaptation projects. These projects, modelled on development projects, make somewhat random interventions for local people: random in their objectives, timing, resources, and duration. This paper considers the question: what is the long-term reality of life in an adaptation-intensive region? Building on critical insights regarding adaptation projects’ shortcomi…
Locally‐led maladaptation as a configuration of responsibilities
The construction of bandals (bamboo walls) is a widely practised climate adaptation initiative in Bangladesh, embodying community agency. This article interrogates how it can also represent locally‐led maladaptation —adaptive efforts that inadvertently sustain or exacerbate the very risks they seek to address. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in a riparian community, this photo essay examines our initial misinterpretation of a bandal project as …
Local values, local losses
There is a limited understanding of unmonetizable, yet valuable, ‘non-economic’ losses and damages and how to address them. Fortunately, the number of assessments explicitly focusing on ‘non-economic’ impacts to inform policy-making is growing. However, assessments are commonly shaped by standardized Western conceptualisations, such as the dichotomy between ‘economic’ and ‘non-economic’ impacts and pre-determined types of ‘non-economic’ losses an…
Valuing a values-based approach for assessing loss and damage
Anthropogenic climate change is causing widespread losses and damages to what people value. To date, non-economic loss and damage assessments are commonly guided by predefined ‘types’ of non-economic losses, similar to those proposed by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. Instead, we draw from studies conducted in Bangladesh and Fiji to emphasize the benefits of a values-based assessment approach to gain a context-sensitive…
Evaluating Social Equity in Protected Areas Co-management
Protected areas (PA) co-management can offer equitable benefits from global to local level. Therefore, social equity has come out as a vital goal in PA co-management for ethical and instrumental reasons. In the Bangladesh context, however, social equity issues have been less studied in PA co-management. This study was conducted in the Sundarbans of Bangladesh, and we evaluated social equity as multidimensional concepts of recognitional, procedura…
