From this module, I learned that climate change impacts are not only environmental but also deeply social and economic, especially in highly populated cities like Dhaka. Rapid urbanization, poor drainage systems, and inadequate infrastructure can significantly worsen climate-related hazards such as flooding and waterlogging. The module highlighted how vulnerable, low-income communities suffer the most because they have limited access to safe water, sanitation, healthcare, and adaptive resources. I also learned that effective climate resilience requires integrated approaches combining urban planning, public health, disaster preparedness, and social equity to reduce risks and protect the most affected populations.
