Climatic variability, societal changes, and dengue disease in Bangladesh : Technical Progress Report - 08

Abstract

Trends of rapid climate change, urbanization, massive increases in air travel and other socio-economic processes and changes in infrastructure, have collectively contributed to transformation in social-ecological conditions, resulting in various vector-borne diseases in Bangladesh including dengue disease. This research project encompasses the development of a multi-scale (local, national and global) with a multi-sectoral approach and interventions that enable prevention and control dengue in Bangladesh.
