Part One of a Two-part Oxfam America 25th Anniversary Series The Building of a Safer Future for Cyclone-vulnerable Bangladesh.
Editorial Reviews:
Oxfam-America production that looks at the continuum from relief work to long-term sustainable development. After a cyclone killed 138,000 people living on the coast of Bangladesh, residents of the island of Kutubdia built cyclone shelters and conducted training sessions to protect themselves from future disasters. Three year later their efforts were rewarded when a similar cyclone claimed the lives of 200 people rather than thousands.
