The "Rain for Life" initiative draws on insights from BRAC's Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs-funded rainwater collection project in Mongla and responds to the needs of local populations. By the end of 2027, it is anticipated that 30% of the climate-affected population in Assasuni, Mongla, and Patharghata upazilas will achieve improved resilience through this initiative.

The project primarily addresses the drinking water crisis faced by communities in climate-vulnerable coastal areas. It also aims to empower farmers to adopt climate-resilient methods for crop cultivation, fisheries, and livestock production. Additionally, the initiative will strengthen environmental resilience through biodiversity and nature conservation efforts, while raising awareness at local, national, and international levels about water accessibility challenges faced by communities at risk from climate change.

“Rain for Life” exemplifies the enduring bilateral partnership between Denmark and Bangladesh in tackling climate change challenges. The initiative seeks to build a sustainable and resilient future for vulnerable communities.
