Evaluating Climate Change Governance in Bangladesh

Beschreibung

This book would be a valuable reference book for academics teaching and researching climate change and environmental governance. This book would be useful to students studying environmental planning, science and management, and social sciences especially, human geography, environmental sociology, development studies, and community engagement. The book will have an audience in both developed and developing countries due to the global significance of climate change and universal nature of human vulnerability to climate change. International development organizations working in developing countries such as World Bank, Asian Development Bank, United Nation s Development Program and international and local NGOs like World Vision, CARE International and Grameen Bank and their workers would be particularly interested since many of these organizations have specific programs for climate affected regions.
