Policy agenda for addressing climate change in Bangladesh: Copenhagen and beyond [1]

This document says that being one of the most affected and vulnerable countries in the world due to climate change Bangladesh is certainly well positioned to raise its voice and bargain for getting a fare share in a global climate deal. The prerequisites for these include adequate knowledge to present the right issues and reasons clearly and loudly. The negotiators have to have a clear understanding of the depth and extent of the problem in terms of its impact on various sectors of the economy both in physical and economic terms. Given the fact that climate change is a complicated and technical issue there is need for include experts, representatives from NGOs, CSOs and all stakeholders to tackle the problem domestically and to devise a position for negotiation at the international levels.
