Mobility of the people of the chars and river banks of Bangladesh: a study of Gaibandha District
This Mobility study was carried out in Bangladesh with a view to understanding Char dwellers' socially differentiated perceptions of mobility and the relationship between mobility and vulnerability. The study had two elements: mobility ranking and mobility mapping, and gathered information from NGO field staff and extensive field visits. Both tools were found to be effective in quickly understanding the issues related to mobility and vulnerability, though mobility ranking was found to be more powerful in involving members of all households present in active discussion and analysis.
