A Voice for People's Perspective
The southwest coastal region of Bangladesh is an active part of Ganges Delta formed by fine
clay soil (Flubic) carried in by the upstream flows which is very fertile and rich in biological
diversity. The livelihood of the people of this region is highly dependent on the natural
resources. Agriculture and fisheries are important economic sectors employing a large
portion of the population. Major gricultural crops include rice, betel and vegetables,
mustered and oil seed. Endowed with an abundance of natural resources and high iological
diversity, there was need for an appropriate development initiative or optimal utilization of
its resources for improving the living tandards of the people.
