The document outlines a strategic plan to build community resilience in Barguna District, Bangladesh through coalition building. The mission is to promote community resilience with the goal of establishing a Center for Cooperative Sustainable Development. The plan involves forming coalitions of key stakeholders like community members, local authorities, and NGOs in areas like sustainable agriculture, housing, water safety, and economic development. It details a 3 phase timeline to first gather information, then take action through coalition-led projects, and finally focus on maintenance. The benefits are expected to include self-sustaining communities with integrated resources and empowered community members with increased disaster resilience and economic growth.

Notes de l'éditeur
- Just over a year ago, a cyclone struck Bangladesh affecting over 8.7 million people and killing 4,000 people. One of the hardest hit districts was the BargunaDistruct and while initial relief efforts have gone well, serious challenge remains with regard to physical and economic redevelopment. We were tasked with partnering with the Barguna District Management Center to in establishing a strategic plan to address redevelopment and recovery in the district over the next 5 years.
- Our focus is on creating a system to increase community resilience through ongoing, sustainable community development. This will be done through the construction a partnership center where community members, partnered initially with outside staff, learn how to identify the needs of the community,facilitate collaboration between NGOs & government organizations, and find funding methods to implement solutions to address the needs of the community. 5 Partnership Centers (one in each upizila) and 3 additional branch centers in each upizilaObjective:Enable the coalition of community members, NGOs, local governmental organization to…Identify needsIdentify mechanisms to address needsLeverage resources and reduce redundancyProvide education
- Key stakeholder form coalitions in order to collaborate to leverage resources to address the main concerns of the community,
- The activities (agricultural diversity) that the coalitions will be focusing on will impact each of these for components, which are interconnected and will increase the overall community resilience of the community. For example – agricultural diversity will increase economic development and diversity Establishing coalition and facilitating coordination between parties will increase access to information and communication. between communities Which includes:Social capital = pride in community, citizen participation, social supportCommunity competence = skills of community members, community empowermentEconomic development = agricultural diversity - diversity and equity of economic resourcesInformation and communication = trusted media, information sources collaboration through NGOs

Coalition needs assessment = overlap and need areas, how to best leverage resources and increase efficiencyThese coalitions will progress through 3 phase. The main goal in forming a framework where coalitions of community members and NGOS can gather information about community needs and identify mechanisms to address those needs and implementing plans to address the needs of the community.
- Phase 1 is composed of two segments. The first part is the construction of a Partnership center which will have facilities in which coalitions can meet, and resources for communication and education such as internet access and teleconferencing equipment. During this time potential partners among community members and NGOs will be identified and networking will begin for the formation of coalitions. In the second segment formal coalitions will be established and needs assessments will be conducted to identify areas of need both in members of the coalition and in the communities they plan to serve.
