Abstract
Across the world climate change is threatening food security, and Bangladesh is no exception. The frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, flooding and extreme heat in the country have a direct negative impact on food production and availability, pushing up prices. In the main, Bangladesh has done well to improve food production and food security in recent years: most measures of food security are moving in the right direction. However, climate change is likely to make future improvements more challenging. This policy brief examines the climate change and food security challenges Bangladesh faces, the trajectory of policy in this area, and how the agriculture sector can contribute to climate change mitigation.
