The situation of Covid-19 in Bangladesh is terrible and situation is getting worse day by day, where more than 100 people are dying every day. In this situation, Bangladesh Government announced lockdown. The biggest problem with lockdown is that low-income people are losing their job. People of the coastal region are the worst victim of losing work sources due to the pandemic.
BEDS supported 30 families with 20 Sheep, 100 chicken and 100 ducks to improve their economic situation during Covid-19. The supported people are doing well. But there are many more marginal villagers live in the Sundarbans coastal region of Bangladesh, who need the same support.People who depend on the forest resources fall in huge risk as Bangladesh government has issued strict laws on forest resource harvesting. Those people belong to an extremely poor socio economic condition. So, in pandemic situation, they require instant support. Livestock can be a great medium for them to survive. BEDS is currently trying to raise fund from GlobalGiving platform in order to help those marginal people.
