Gosaba is one of the most significant inhabited islands in the Sundarbans, playing a crucial role in the region’s ecological, economic, and social landscape. Here are some key aspects of its importance:

1. Gateway to the Sundarbans

  • Gosaba is the largest and last inhabited island before the core forest areas of the Sundarbans.
  • It serves as an entry point for tourists, researchers, and forest officials exploring the Sundarbans Tiger Reserve.

2. Economic & Livelihood Hub

  • The island supports thousands of people engaged in fishing, honey collection, and agriculture.
  • Many residents work as boatmen or tourist guides for those visiting the Sundarbans.

3. Role in Conservation & Human-Wildlife Conflict Management

  • Due to its proximity to the forest, human-wildlife conflicts (especially with tigers) are common.
  • Several conservation programs operate here to protect both wildlife and the local community.

4. Historical Importance

  • Gosaba is known for its association with Sir Daniel Hamilton, a Scottish banker who initiated cooperative movements in the region in the early 20th century.
  • His efforts helped improve the economic conditions of the local people.

5. Vulnerability to Climate Change

  • The island faces coastal erosion, rising sea levels, and frequent cyclones (like Aila, Amphan, and Yaas).
  • Many local initiatives focus on mangrove afforestation and sustainable livelihood development to combat climate threats.

6. Tourism & Ecotourism

  • It is close to major attractions like the Sajnekhali Wildlife Sanctuary and Dobanki Watchtower.

7. Connectivity & Infrastructure
