<p>The Climate Change Programme is helping Bangladesh become more resilient to climate change, supporting the national Bangladesh Climate Change Strategy and Action Plan. The plan prioritises adaptation and disaster risk reduction, and also addresses low-carbon development, technology transfer and research. By 2015, 15 million people will have access to early warning systems for floods and cyclones.</p><p>The programme is implemented in three components. The Bangladesh Climate Change Resilience Fund is managed by the Government of Bangladesh with the World Bank providing technical support and financial safeguards. The Comprehensive Disaster Management Programme is led by UNDP to support government and civil society to strengthen national systems and help communities reduce the risk of disasters. A smaller strategic fund is managed directly by DFID, piloting innovations and research in Bangladesh such as the best designs for cyclone-resilient housing.</p>
