Abstract

The book is derived from the Refugee and Migratory Movements Research Unit (RMMRU, University of Dhaka). It concentrates on issues and impacts of climate change and other environmental drivers on migration and autonomous adaptation in Bangladesh. Developed by the DEltas, Vulnerability, and Climate Change: Migration as an Adaptation (DECCMA) team, both the origin and destination area surveys are unique endeavours pursuing the same research questions, conducted in four deltas: the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna delta (India, Bangladesh), Mahanadi delta (India), and the Volta delta (Ghana). This book focuses on the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna delta of Bangladesh.
