The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has approved $71 million loan to improve flood control, irrigation, and water resources management in rural communities of Gopalganj and Madaripur districts in Bangladesh to strengthen their preparedness and resilience to the effects of climate change.
“The ADB additional support will further boost economic growth and productivity, increase incomes and sustainable livelihoods, especially for women and vulnerable groups, and reduce poverty in rural areas of southwest Bangladesh,” an official release quoted ADB Senior Project Management Specialist Pushkar Srivastav as saying.
The financial grant project is expected to benefit more than 600,000 people and will introduce climate-resilient flood control, drainage, and irrigation (FCDI) measures and reduce saline intrusion, the release said.বিস্তারিত
