Climate Migration and Its Impacts on Women in Bangladesh
2025
World Bank
Climate change is not gender neutral and effectively addressing climate change must consider its gender differentiated impacts. Bangladesh is one of the countries most vulnerable to climate change and faces severe and increasing risks, resulting in widespread climate migration; however, the gendered impacts are under researched and lacking comprehensive data. This knowledge brief aims to address this gap by generating data specifically focused on women’s experiences with climate migration. It provides the World Bank with deeper insights into the conditions women face and discusses the findings within the country’s context. The findings in this brief also point to the need for further research and a greater understanding of the issues. A more comprehensive and nuanced understanding of these issues will strengthen the World Bank’s ability to intentionally address them through its operations and support to the GoB. This knowledge brief recognizes ongoing discussions around the definitions of and distinctions between migration and displacement.
