Shortcut to the frontline: supporting local NGOs on climate change in Bangladesh
We've just published this new paper, based on a research project by INTRAC and PRIP Trust that aims to understand the role of local (non-centralised Bangladeshi) NGOs in climate change work: their current situation, outlook and future prospects. It is a snapshot of how different NGOs in south-western Bangladesh approach the issue: small and large ones; ones that are well-connected internationally and those who are well-rooted in their ‘base’ communities; ones that deliver services to the stricken and those who fight for systemic changes.
The paper gives some insight into the situation on the ground, and shares answers to some elementary questions. We hope that this can benefit local Bangladeshi NGOs and others who want to work with them to improve life in the face of our common global challenge, climate change.
