Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts

One of the sub-goals of SDG 13 is to strengthen resilience and adaptive capacity to climate-related hazards and natural disasters. The project will address climate change impact in Bangladesh. The objective of the Project is to enhance the capacity of vulnerable communities, local government institutions and civil society organizations for planning and financing climate change adaptation solutions in selected climate vulnerable areas. As a result of project interventions, the capacity of local governments, households and other local stakeholders would be enhanced enabling them to improve existing and future local development plans by integrating climate change adaptation solutions. The Project is, therefore, in perfect harmony with SDG 13.
