Bangladesh Flood 1998
Programme for Research on Poverty Alleviation, Grameen Bank,
Dhaka, Bangladesh
Supplied note:
"Bangladesh is emerging out of a terrible flood. Aside from
the loss of human lives and livestock there has been
extensive damage to housing, roads and infrastructure, and
standing crops. Economic life has slowed down, adding to
problems of unemployment and declining incomes. The
flooding and contamination of drinking water has contributed
to increases in diarrhoeal diseases and hepatitis. In this
situation it is imperative that we work together and
collectively confront this crisis."
