 Water management in Dhaka

Water management in Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh and a city with 20 million inhabitants, faces numerous challenges such as flooding, poor service quality, groundwater depletion, inadequate sanitation, polluted river water, unplanned urban development, and the existence of large slums where more than one third of its population lives.Residents of Dhaka enjoy one of the lowest water tariffs in the world, which limits the utility's capacity to invest.
