The recommendations are to increase international cooperation in protecting the world and the human race; Keep global warming below 1.5 degrees Celsius and implement all articles of the Paris Agreement; Provide the funds promised to countries affected by climate change; Polluting countries must take the necessary mitigation measures to meet Nationally Defined Contributions (NDCs) and recognize that it is a global responsibility to rehabilitate climate refugees.

Bangladesh’s Delta 2100 Plan has been formulated to address the challenges of climate change and water management. The Prime Minister highlighted the various measures taken by Bangladesh to deal with the climate change disaster.
Sheikh Hasina said: “We have built 4,291 cyclone shelters, 523 flood shelters and we have 56,000 volunteers.” That is why we have joined the RIP initiative, which aims to save 1 billion people around the world from disaster by 2025.
