Drinking water supply and drinking water procurement from wells or freshwater ponds near Shyamnagar. The people in the small settlements along the rivers in southern Bangladesh are clearly feeling the effects of climate change. The sea level is rising and dams are being destroyed. As a result, fields and the important freshwater ponds are flooded and salinated. Therefore, great efforts are being made to fortify the banks. Residential buildings are being raised and fortified as well. Suesswater harvesting projects are very important to provide people with clean drinking water.

In einer kleinen Siedlung am Fluss in der Naehe von Shyamnagar, wo von CCDB Deiche mit Baumpflanzungen stabilisiert werden, Regenauffanganlagen zur verfuegung gestellt werden, wurde auch ein grosser ehemals versalzener Teich in einen Suesswasserteich umgewandelt, wo den Bewohner jetzt Trinkwasser zur Verfuegung steht. Denn die Menschen in den kleinen Siedlungen und auf den Fluessen des verzweigten Muendungsdelta in der Naehe von Shyamnagar in Sued Bangladesch, spuehren deutlich den Klimawandel. Der Meeresspiegel steigt und Daemme werden zerstört. Da durch werden Felder und die wichtigen Suesswasserteiche ueberflutet und versalzen. CCDB Bangladesch arbeitet an Suesswassergewinnungs-Projekten und sorgt dafuer, dass die Menschen nach und nach sauberes Trinkwasser erhalten.
