Abstract

Climate Change creates one of the greatest developmental challenges of the current era. Bangladesh, since most of the children of migrants of the school going age are being left in the village when one or both of their parents move to the city. Climate migrants who have started living in urban slums are in search of a better and more secure life. This paper is a descriptive type of qualitative study conducted in Dhaka to explore the socio-economic status and educational condition of climate migrant children of slum people. The target groups for the interview are the mothers of the children who are supported to be well informed about children’s lifestyle while the purposive sample size was 50. This study also investigated the government and non-government programs for slum children. The study was conducted at one of the slums of Dhaka with observation, and semi-structured interview schedules were used for selected climate migrant slum dwellers. Protected socioeconomic support and planned migration are suggested in this paper to explore further poverty and educational insecurity of the urban poor.
