The “most beautiful place” where “it’s not possible to live”: A qualitative study of relational well-being in an area of climate vulnerability, Bangladesh
Using relational well-being as a conceptual lens allowed us to explore the dynamism and complexity of factors shaping well-being that were partly specific to the local context and partly rooted in wider societal and global structures. Policies which aim to improve the well-being of climate vulnerable populations should consider relational well-being as a conceptual tool to leverage locally available informal resources, such as suppotive reciprocal relationships.
