Briefing - Seasonal demand for labour on island chars and its effect on migration and remittances

Abstract

As part of its work to improve the livelihoods of over one million char dwellers, the CLP implements the infrastructure and employment scheme (IEP), an earth work scheme which provides employment during the annual hungry period of monga. This briefing, based on a longer report, outlines the operation and impact of this employment creation scheme, and makes a number of recommendations for changes.
