Chapainawabganj
Bangladesh
Chapainawabganj is projected to face growing climate hazards, including extreme heat with dangerous heat extremes likely to occur more frequently. The region is also expected to experience prolonged drought conditions, negatively impacting water resources and agriculture. Additionally, high arbovirus transmission risk poses a serious threat to public health. These climate challenges may exacerbate the vulnerability of local communities and infrastructure, leading to increased socio-economic difficulties. Increased awareness and understanding of these climate risks are crucial for future planning. At present, we have not yet identified technology-enabled climate resilience solutions for this city, which may further influence its ability to adapt to these changing conditions.
