Multi-donor trust fund against climate change opposed

Forming multi donor trust fund in the name of aiding Bangladesh in facing risk of climate change is an evil strategy, speakers said at a press conference yesterday.

Rejecting "Climate Change Strategy and Action for Bangladesh" of the government, they said the strategy paper was prepared according to the advice of the local representatives of the World Bank.

Equity and Justice Working Group (EquityBD) organised the press conference at Dhaka Reporters' Unity (DRU) in the city.
