Description
Story behind this
initiative
Bangladesh is on the frontline of the global climate crisis, facing rising sea levels, frequent flooding, and extreme weather events that threaten both lives and livelihoods. The impact of climate change is felt most acutely by vulnerable communities, particularly those dependent on agriculture and coastal resources.
Jonoshakti is dedicated to mitigating the effects of climate change and promoting environmental sustainability. We work with communities to implement eco-friendly practices, restore ecosystems, and build resilience against the inevitable challenges posed by a changing climate.
Our environmental initiatives focus not only on immediate action but also on long-term sustainability. By fostering a culture of environmental stewardship and providing the tools and knowledge needed for adaptation, Jonoshakti empowers communities to protect their natural resources and secure a safer future.
Brief Summary
Bangladesh is one of the most climate-vulnerable countries in the world. Jonoshakti is focused on addressing environmental challenges, promoting climate resilience, and supporting communities affected by extreme weather events.
Why it's important
According to The Daily Star (2021), climate change threatens to displace millions in Bangladesh, with rising sea levels and increased frequency of natural disasters like floods and cyclones. The agricultural sector is particularly vulnerable, threatening food security and livelihoods for millions of people.
Why it needs attention
The effects of climate change are already being felt, and the consequences will only worsen without immediate action. Jonoshakti is committed to promoting environmental sustainability by educating communities on eco-friendly practices, supporting reforestation efforts, and building climate-resilient infrastructure. Protecting the environment today ensures a safer, healthier future for all.
