Abstract

Bangladesh is recognized as one of the worst affected countries of the world due to climate induced disasters. The disadvantageous geographical setting along with various socioeconomic factors is triggering the vulnerabilities of people. The impacts of climate change are multifaceted and disproportionately distributed regardless of race, caste, ethnicity, sex and level of income. The perception and impact of climate change is completely gender differentiated. Women are ever more vulnerable to the impact of climate change than men, because they have very limited access to financial resources, land, education, health services and in decision making process. All these insufficiencies make women vulnerable to climate induced disaster than men. This study has found an appealing relationship between climate change impact on women’s livelihoods and health. Climate change adversely impact on women’s livelihoods and health and create extra burden on women.
