This book consists of six chapters. The purpose of the book seeks to address questions regarding the patterns of risks and vulnerabilities in areas vulnerable to riverbank erosion in Bangladesh. This book also analyzes the impact of riverbank erosion on various forms, and reveals the challenges that the government of Bangladesh experiences in managing the risks and vulnerabilities associated with riverbank erosion. Bangladesh, located in the delta of the Ganges, Brahmaputra, and Meghna rivers, is known for its unique landscapes. However, the dependence of the country on its river systems presents considerable environmental issues, with riverbank erosion becoming a serious concern. Riverbank erosion in Bangladesh has significant socio-economic consequences that perpetuate national poverty. This book aims to find the specific answers to the following inquiries. i. What are the key patterns of risks and vulnerabilities in areas prone to riverbank erosion? ii. What are the impacts of riverbank erosion on different types of livelihood vulnerability? iii. What are the reasons for the government's failure to deal with the risks and vulnerabilities caused by riverbank erosion?
