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. 606 $aDeltas, estuaries, coastal regions$2bicssc 606 $aDevelopment economics & emerging economies$2bicssc 610 $aresettlement 610 $aland development 610 $aBangladesh 610 $aCommonwealth of Nations 610 $adevelopment projects 610 $aAsia 610 $alivelihoods 610 $arural development 610 $aLeast Developed Countries 610 $aDeveloping Countries 610 $aSouth Asia 615 7$aDeltas, estuaries, coastal regions 615 7$aDevelopment economics & emerging economies 676 $a333.315492 700 $aJenkins$b Andrew$0252751 701 $aHaider$b Natasha$0851357 701 $aKarim$b Bazlul$0851358 701 $aChakraborty$b Mihir Kumar$0851359 701 $aSarker$b Kiran Sankar$0851360 701 $aKarim$b Rezaul$0851361 701 $aIslam$b Robiul$0851362 701 $aBegum$b Nujulee$0851363 701 $aMallorie$b Edward$0851364 701 $aWilde$b Koen de$0851365 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910420941403321 996 $aNew Land, New Life$91900802 997 $aUNINA
