Readiness and Anticipatory Action Key Learnings from Coastal Cyclone Preparedness in Bangladesh

Jointly conducted by inSights and AVAS under StartReady Learning Grant, this study examines readiness and anticipatory action (AA) in coastal Bangladesh, focusing on early warnings, cash transfers, and NFI distributions before Cyclone Remal and draws on community insights, assesses timeliness, accessibility, and relevance of interventions versus post-impact relief. The report highlights the value of localised planning, GESI approach, and community engagement in enhancing AA outcomes and disaster preparedness.
