Working Women In Coastal Areas
Bangladeshi women are cleaning algae in a shrimp farm during the ongoing heat wave in a coastal area. These women are earning $2.7 for five hours of work in Khulna, Bangladesh, on April 27, 2024. Working in saline water for extended periods, the women are suffering from skin-related issues. They face higher risks and greater burdens associated with climate change. Thousands of Bangladeshi women are experiencing devastating reproductive health issues due to the increasing salt content in the waters where they live and work, which threatens their health and safety, as well as the well-being of their families and the stability of their communities.
