Working Women In Coastal Areas
A woman is working on a shrimp farm in a coastal area during the ongoing heat wave across the country. Women in the coastal area are earning $2.7 for 5 hours of work in Khulna, Bangladesh, on April 27, 2024. Women who work in saline water for extended periods often suffer from skin-related issues. They commonly 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 not only their health and safety but also the well-being of their families and the stability of their communities.
