Chars are sandy landmasses that emerge when the river meanders and the riverbank erosion submerges one part of the land and gives rise to another patch on it’s other side. These patches (Chars) of land embody it itself uncertainty, poverty, vulnerability, lack of governance and cross border resources sharing. ECO conducted workshops with children living on either sides of the India Bangladesh Border along the chars and trained them to co-author a short 14 min film jointly. The script was put together through joint consultations and sharing via skype everyday and each group included their experiences from their side of the border ending in a moving narrative of lives lived on the Chars – the children’s perspective. This was part of IUCN’s 4 year project on the shared water resources of India and Bangladesh.
