Paribartan Resilience in the Bay of Bengal

Recommendations

Info

Key Achievements The Paribartan project has demonstrated 5 adaptation models – composite agriculture model, rain-water harvesting system, homestead gardening, poly-bed cultivation, and energy-efficient stoves to address climate challenges. Participants practicing the pilots gain both economic and social benefits, with their average income increasing by 50%. Furthermore, the Paribartan project has enabled communities to create their household level preparedness and adaptation plans, and introduced the 100 Household Initiatives and multi-layer vegetable gardening technique which have proved to be effective community capacity-building strategies. Since the inception of the Paribartan project in 2011, understanding and capacity of state and non-state actors have significantly increased, and local authorities have been influenced to include community needs into local development planning processes. As a result, 75% of Union Disaster Management Committees have allocated separate funds for climate change adaptation work in their annual development budget. Household-level disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation plans are a milestone of the project having been introduced to all target communities. 97% of participants now receive timely early warning messages for flooding and storm surges. In addition, Concern’s advocacy at the micro, meso and macro levels has influenced policy makers and practitioners to take further initiatives to scale up the interventions and incorporate community needs into their development planning. This photo-book "Paribartan: Resilience in the Bay of Bengal" features the stories of the people we have worked with, especially those who have enhanced their coping abilities to recover from the impacts of disasters and climate change, through the Paribartan project.
