摘要

Disasters damage the entire economy of the country when they predominantly take place in developingrncountries. While no country in the world is entirely safe, lack of capacity to limit the impact of hazardsrnhas made developing countries being the most vulnerable nations to natural disasters. Bangladesh isrnbeing identified as a country that is vulnerable to climate change and subsequent natural disastersrnevery year. Dense population and poverty has reduced the adaptability of Bangladesh in disastrousrnsituations thus further increasing severity of impact from disasters. Owing to geographical settings,rnBangladesh is currently ranked as one of the world’s most disaster-prone countries in the world. Thernfrequent natural hazards such as cyclones, storm surges, floods, droughts, tornados, riverbankrnerosions, earthquakes, arsenic contamination of groundwater and landslides account for significantrnlosses in human lives and physical assets while effects are further reflected in social settings,rnecosystems and the economic well-being of the country. This paper evaluates the types of naturalrndisasters Bangladesh is subjecting to, how they have affected the Bangladesh community and existingrndisaster risk reduction strategies. Paper also evaluates four main domains of disaster vulnerabilityrnreduction measures namely physical, engineering, structural and organisational. Existing disaster riskrnreduction strategies adopted in Bangladesh are linked with the aforementioned four domains ofrndisaster vulnerability reduction measures. A comprehensive literature review is used as the researchrnmethod. Literature synthesis suggests that Bangladesh is being using a combination of disaster riskrnreduction measures ranging from technical to social measures.
