Project Overview
PARIBARTAN is a 4.5-year project (2022-2027) called “Participatory Action Research on locally led Iterative Learning and Inclusive Business Models for Adaptive Transformation in Bangladesh Polders.” Supported by the Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR), this project will respond to the climatic and social challenges faced by farmers by using participatory action and bottom-up research processes to collaboratively design, demonstrate, test, and refine a range of locally-led adaptation approaches that are hypothesized to be more viable and sustainable given the complex and dynamic social-ecological landscape encountered within polders.
Paribartan is being led by the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Centre (CIMMYT) in partnership with the International Centre for Climate Change and Development (ICCCAD) and Shushilan.
