When the Project Leaves -- References -- Back Cover.The Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna delta has newly emerged 'char' islands, resulting from the deposition of sediment, which are very vulnerable, socially, institutionally and environmentally. This book explains how the governments of Bangladesh and the Netherlands and the International Fund for Agricultural Development cooperated on a land-based rural development project to give settlers security and purpose. It details how they engaged communities and civil societies, and implemented an infrastructure aimed at reducing flooding, improving drainage, and providing adequate drinking water and sanitation. The book describes the project's application to crop and animal agriculture, and the development of value chains and encouragement of female participation. It considers the financial underpinning and infrastructure, as well as how to ensure the impacts of the scheme are enduring. The scheme serves as a model for support projects to vulnerable groups faced with climate change and other environmental challenges. This book is suitable for students, researchers, specialists and practitioners in rural development, water resources, land management and soil science.Deltas, estuaries, coastal regionsbicsscDevelopment economics & emerging economiesbicsscresettlementland developmentBangladeshCommonwealth of Nationsdevelopment projectsAsialivelihoodsrural developmentLeast Developed CountriesDeveloping CountriesSouth AsiaDeltas, estuaries, coastal regionsDevelopment economics & emerging economies333.315492Jenkins Andrew252751Haider Natasha851357Karim Bazlul851358Chakraborty Mihir Kumar851359Sarker Kiran Sankar851360Karim Rezaul851361Islam Robiul851362Begum Nujulee851363Mallorie Edward851364Wilde Koen de851365MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910420941403321New Land, New Life1900802UNINA
