Report on Research Need Identification and Validation
Bangladesh is extremely vulnerable to natural hazards and due to its geographical location, its topography and dense population the hazards often result in disasters with a high loss of life and economic damage. Disaster risk reduction in a changing climate involves identification and delineation of climate change and hazard risks over time and space. Disaster risk reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation (CCA) options suitable to any context and acceptable to the communities are necessary to address such risks. To reduce the risks and continue sustainable development, planned adaptation is necessary. In planned adaptation, it is necessary to have risk reduction and climate change adaptation options. The options are not readily available for many of the cases. Generation of new knowledge and options to treat such risks are essential. The impacts of disaster and climate change are sector, location and community specific and as such generation of knowledge and options shall be pursued through research accordingly so that those meet the requirements.
