The future of Bangladesh’s new frontier cities (Daily Star)

November 09, 2021


Daily Star (Bangladesh) published an article about Dhaka’s development and associated challenges and how they should be a good example for growing cities that need to ensure sustainable urbanization. Planned development of secondary cities can salvage the capital from drowning from the effects of mass immigration and maintain its potential of offering a good quality of life to its citizens. IFPRI warns in the blog post, Confronting the challenges of salinity intrusion on agriculture in South Asia that the corrosive effect of salinity on local agricultural economies could further displace up to 200,000 people from the coastal areas of Bangladesh.
