Impact of Climate Change induced disaster on health and Family Planning sector in Bangladesh

  Climate Change-induced disasters in Bangladesh, such as increased frequency and intensity of cyclones, floods, and sea-level rise, have profound impacts on the health and Family Planning sector. Here are some key impacts: { Increased Risk of Waterborne Diseases : Climate Change-related floods and cyclones can contaminate water sources, leading to a higher risk of waterborne diseases such as diarrhea, cholera, and typhoid.

This can result in increased malnutrition, particularly among vulnerable populations such as pregnant women and children. Malnutrition can have long-term health consequences, including stunting and compromised immune systems. { Vector-Borne Diseases: Rising temperatures and altered rainfall patterns create favorable condition
