Together with local partner organisations, we support disadvantaged population groups, particularly refugees. In the north of the country, which is severely affected by climate change, we focus on educating people about the consequences of climate change, safe migration options and how to build sustainable livelihoods.
Together Against Exploitation: Promoting Safe Migration in Bangladesh

In partnership with GUK, we are working to ensure migrants and their families receive better protection and support.

Securing Food, Preventing Disasters
In the Gaibandha district of northern Bangladesh, floods, heatwaves and riverbank erosion pose a constant threat to the livelihoods of many people year after year. Crops are destroyed, homes are damaged and roads become impassable. The consequences are hunger and poverty. That is why, together with our local partner organisation, Gana Unnayan Kendra (GUK), we are specifically strengthening disaster preparedness and food security on the ground.
