S’adapter au climat

Préparer les communautés aux catastrophes naturelles et faire face à leurs conséquences.

NOTRE ACTION POUR LE CLIMAT

Le Bangladesh est particulièrement vulnérable aux catastrophes naturelles. Sa population subit les répercussions du réchauffement climatique et des changements climatiques. Les cyclones et les inondations ravagent le pays avec une régularité croissante et les pauvres sont toujours les plus touchés. Parce que protéger des vies est un de nos objectifs fondateurs/primordiaux, Friendship concentre ses efforts sur l’aide aux habitants des chars dans les zones sujettes aux catastrophes naturelles. 

Friendship a développé de nombreuses actions permettant d’accroître la résilience des population face aux catastrophes naturelles tels que des soins d’urgence, accompagnement et aide aux populations touchées.

How we make a difference

Floods in 2016 and 2017

Floods in 2016 and 2017 triggered by heavy rainfall affected millions of people leaving thousands homeless (or displaced) and causing damage to their crops, killing their herds, thus losing their livelihoods. Thanks to your donations, Friendship was able to distribute over 20,000 food packs to remote char communities during the relief phase of the floods in 2016.

Cyclone Roanu in 2016

Cyclone Roanu battered the southern coast of Bangladesh in 2016 forcing half a million people to flee their homes. Friendship was able to provide healthcare services to 1750 patients in the affected communities of Hatiya, Kutubdia and Kuakata.
