TY - JOUR PY - 1996// TI - From relief to development: food for work in Bangladesh JO - Disasters A1 - Hyder, Melissa Lynn SP - 21 EP - 33 VL - 20 IS - 1 N2 - The National Food-assisted Works Programme for Water and Land Development in Bangladesh which began as a relief operation in 1975, was designed to evolve gradually into a development-oriented programme. This complex and largely successful transition offers a study in change of relevance to the current debate on the relief-development continuum. What emerges from a review of the Bangladesh experience is that the transition from relief to development is as complex as it is desirable, and that while there is a 'continuum' of sorts if it can be reached, getting there has lately become more arduous.
