dc.description.abstract | Natural disasters including riverbank erosion contribute immensely to the process of
marginalization of a large number of people. They displace and push household into situations
that are extremely difficult to reserves. The present paper discusses the human dimension of
the phenomenon and argues the need for a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying
erosion vulnerability resulting population shifts on a micro scale perspective in the country.
An attempt has also been made to focus the relationship between erosion hazard and dynamics
of human adjustment with this hazardous situation to gain a consensus view regarding the
phenomena from the affected “Haimchar” villages. This paper emphasizes that the meandering
and braided river including Meghna always runs to the risk of changing course thereby eroding
theexisting bank andmaking continuous attack on human settlements. | en_US |
