Wednesday 13th December

Wednesday was a bright and early rise as we had a two and half hour bus ride to our first Youth Ending Hunger social action project (SAP) which was taking place in Sarail, Brahmanbaria. This was a great first social action project to visit, and we were given an incredible welcome to the town as we stepped off the coach. We were given flowers and parade materials, including hats and flags. What happened next was a very honourable experience as we took part in a rally to celebrate social action and the work the community is doing to overcome their social issues.

9am meeting with four Climate Champions from the Climate Generation project run by the British Council. During this meeting we were presented with a very worrying situation in Bangladesh. Climate change through global warming is having an accelerating effect on the communities here. Bangladesh has the second lowest coast line in the world, and the country is already experiencing devastating floods throughout different regions and districts.
