Bangladesh is faced by a number of environmental crises, including an increase in the frequency and severity of extreme climatic events, a scarcity of natural resources and the degradation of the natural environment. Combined with high rates of poverty, these heighten vulnerability to environmental shocks. To address these challenges, effective investment in the environment and forestry sectors is essential. The overall aim of the project was to strengthen human and organizational capacity in the country to deliver more effective, coordinated, sustainable and country-driven investment programmes in environmental protection, sustainable forest management, and climate change adaptation and mitigation.
