Negotiate compensation to face impact of climate change

Saying that financing for climate change is a right of the people of an affected country, the speakers at a conference yesterday urged the government to negotiate for compensation to face its possible adverse impact instead of seeking loan or grant. The two-day conference titled 'Financing for climate change: Challenges and way forward 2008' was organised jointly by Unnayan Onneshan and Oxfam Bangladesh at the LGED auditorium in the city. The speakers said Bangladesh is only getting lots of assurances but not enough fund.
