Support for livelihoods and provision of clean water

This evaluation focuses on examining the causal impacts of adopting climate-resilient livelihoods and implementing solutions for clean drinking water on the well-being of beneficiaries in two districts in the coastal area of south-western Bangladesh. The south-western region has been facing significant challenges that arise due to its low elevation, saline water intrusion and the increasing occurrence of natural disasters.

Despite efforts to reduce the impacts of disasters and to increase climate resilience, the country's vulnerability remains high. Implemented by UNDP, this project provides adaptive livelihoods to women's livelihood groups for women's engagement and empowerment and constructs rainwater harvesting systems to ensure water supply.

The evaluation will measure the impact of to what extent adaptive livelihoods provide sustainable means of earnings and how much drinking water solutions allow beneficiaries to engage in income generating activities, especially for women.
