$ 50m livelihood project for Sidr-hit people
The US$ 50 million livelihood restoration project for cyclone Sidr-affected people will be launched this month, with four worst affected upazilas being covered in the first phase. The second phase would be the formal project launch, which would take place simultaneously in all the proposed unions by the end of June this year, said a World Bank information note. Social Development Foundation (SDF) will implement the project to meet the emergency need to support restoration of livelihoods with financial assistance from the World Bank.
