Abstract
This study was jointly undertaken by the
Climate Change and Health Promotion Unit of the Ministry of
Health and Family Welfare, the International Centre for
Diarrheal Disease Research, Bangladesh, and the World Bank.
This study had two broad objectives: (1) to assess national
vulnerability and impact on major diseases of increased
climate variability and extreme events in Bangladesh; and
(2) to assess existing institutional and implementation
capacity, financial resources at the local level, and
existing public programs targeted at climate-sensitive diseases.
