Chapter 8: Vanishing Homelands
Venetians and the Bangladesh diaspora in Venice are connected by the threat of sea level rise. The Bangladesh fled from their home country as a consequence of climate change, to a country with a similar thread of rising waters. Without sharing one language, the team engages with Venetian Bangladeshi climate refugees and with Venetian families who are experiencing the increased destruction of floods through generations.
In this collection you can find:
1. Chapter 8 in the publication 'Values for Survival, the Venice Exploratorium'.
2. The Interview by Caroline Nevejan and Jane da Mosto with the participants of Vanishing Homelands.
