The study was conducted in both the mainland and islands of Coxs Bazar district. We examined the impact of the warming by measuring the effectiveness or the warming. reasons behind evaluation of failure to do so. experience or evacuating and staying in shelters. and loss in assets. We also examined whether evacuees will trust future warnings.
