Bangladesh may set up a body to deal with "loss and damage" from climate change, but how would it be funded?
Bangladesh is set to make a splash at the U.N. climate talks in Morocco when experts and officials present a proposal for a national body to deal with the losses and damage the low-lying South Asian nation expects to suffer from climate change.
The body, if established, would be a first among developing countries vulnerable to worsening droughts, floods, storms and rising seas - all threats to development in Bangladesh, where about a third of people live beneath the poverty line.
