AKK-IGES New Climate Risk Management Project
Acknowledgements
The New Climate Risk Management Project (NCRMP) project funded by the Government of Japan through
UNEP and implemented through the technical support of IGES which gave an important opportunity of working
on a very relevant issue for the region where AKK works i.e. char lands. This is due to the fact that the char
lands of Bangladesh are highly vulnerable to various natural and manmade disasters which can be exacerbated
by the climate change.
First of all, we would like to thank all the beneficiaries of the project “New Climate Risk Management” for
providing their time and participating in this project and shared their knowledge and ideas during the
implementation and evaluation of this project. The project was implemented with the able support of Abdullah
Al Mamun, PM, AKK; Hakim Manik, Monitoring Officer, AKK; Kuddus Mollah, Coordinator, AKK; Halima
Akter Kakoli, PM, AKK; B.M. Alauddin, Programme Director, AKK and under the guidance and support of
S.V.R.K. Prabhakar, Policy Researcher, IGES, Japan, the APFED secretariat, and UNEP.
We would like to especially thank the team members of AKK, local NGOs, and local district administration for
their kind support during the implementation of the project. The invaluable support received from Mr. M.A.
Jalil, Executive Director, AKK in the form of guidance and supervision us during the implementation and
finalization of this report is greatly acknowledged.
