The Importance of Community Participation in Coastal Zone Management: a Bangladesh Perspective
The Coast of Bangladesh, comprising the complex delta of the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna river systems, has immense resources for development. In terms of development efforts, however this zone has been among the most neglected. The needs of the coastal communities are often mentioned in planning and implementing coastal management projects, but they are not taken properly into consideration. Consequently, coastal zone management projects have had only limited success. Community participation in developmental projects is briefly discussed in this paper, with a focus on coastal zone management. Many countries, and especially Bangladesh, would greatly benefit from greater community involvement in coastal developmental projects.
