Bangladesh – Community Based Needs Assessment (March - September 2022)

This report serves to present the findings from the Community-Based Needs Assessment conducted by DTM between March and September 2022 in Kurigram District, Bangladesh. It focuses on understanding the multisectoral needs and vulnerabilities prevalent in the 2,853 villages across all nine upazilas. The primary objective of CBNA is to furnish a baseline for determining programmatic priorities and enabling geographical targeting of assistance. To achieve this, the assessment supplies summary statistics of essential socio-economic indicators, including employment, household finances and income, food and nutrition, markets, shelter, environmental events (such as flooding and rain), health, education, water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH), utilities, and received assistance.
