Abstract
Coastal communities in Bangladesh face growing threats from climate-driven disasters, making local resilience
vital for survival and recovery. This study explores how disaster knowledge, government policy support, and social capital help coastal households withstand natural hazards. It also examines whether community preparedness connects these factors to resilience, and
whether risk perception changes these relationships.
