ContextIn Bangladesh, due to sea-level rise, saline water intrusion in the coastal areas is increasing significantly while fresh water flow from the upper riparian countries is gradually decreasing. As a result, most of the land areas there are becoming saturated with saline water, and potable water is becoming more scarce. Collecting fresh water is becoming a major task for the women and children in poor households. Technical assistance is required to install desalination plants or other desalination technologies at affordable prices in the households. Low-cost climate resilient housing is another important issue concerning the coastal people of Bangladesh. The houses made of low quality materials can not last long. The durability of structures built using local sand, bricks and saline water is very poor. Low-cost salinity-proof structures are essential for the poor communities living along the coastal belt.
