Abstract

A rapidly growing economy and population are putting enormous strain on the city of Dhaka’s freshwater resources. This project, led by WSUP, looked at the attitudes and perceptions of households, industry, government and non-governmental organizations to freshwater pollution in Dhaka. The findings from this project aim to help identify critical areas for investment and improvement and offer policy recommendations for more sustainable water management.

This work is part of the REACH ‘Improving Water Security for the Poor’ programme
