“…As in many other developing countries, rural to urban migration contributes significantly to migration flows, with the rural population (as a percentage of the total population) rising from 8% (1974) to 23% (2001) to 36.6% (2018) to 39% today [ 21 , 22 , 23 ]. The country frequently experiences natural disasters including drought, heavy rain, and severe storm surges [ 24 ] contributing to decreased agricultural and fishery yields, which have in turn contributed to the migration to coastal and urban cities, which face their own climate change challenges [ 25 ].…”

“…En el presente trabajo, se ha decidido utilizar el término desplazados climáticos como una subcategoría dentro de los desplazados ambientales. Cabe aclarar que si bien las condiciones ambientales desfavorables, refiriéndonos a aquellas que perduran en el tiempo 6 , son el motivo inmediato de la migración, la migración inducida ambientalmente rara vez es monocausal (Mohammad, 2015). La causa última del desplazamiento suele residir en las condiciones sociales, políticas y/o económicas previas de los territorios de origen de los desplazados (Charnley, 1997).…”

“…La gravedad de las tormentas, sequías, lluvias, inundaciones y otros eventos climáticos extremos ha ido en aumento en países en desarrollo como Bangladesh debido a los efectos cambio climático, lo que plantea desafíos que hacen que la vida y los medios de subsistencia de millones de personas sean cada vez más complejos y vulnerables (Gobierno de la República Popular de Bangladesh, 2018). En este sentido, el calentamiento global amenaza principalmente a la agricultura, que es la columna vertebral del país (Mohammad, 2015), y a quienes se dedican y dependen de esta actividad.…”
