What we did
Local governments in Bangladesh need technical capacity to prepare urban development plans in a manner that is climate resilient and socially inclusive. There is a need for the consideration of climate risks to be integrated in the urban development planning. Investments for urban development need to be planned in a climate sensitive, gender sensitive and inclusive manner. For this, it is necessary to improve the dialogue process and knowledge exchange for the promotion of climate resilience in cities.
