Bangladesh has recognized the importance of an Institutional and Regulatory Framework (IRF) for Fecal Sludge Management in order to ensure that the achieved sanitation successes are sustained. This brief provides background and the way forward for policymakers.

Although the problems associated with FSM is widespread, there is limited data and information on FSM practices in urban areas. There are significant differences in institutional setup and FSM practices among and within cities/towns, and proper understanding of the situation is a pre-requisite for the development of a workable FSM system. The overall objective of the present case study was to assess the FSM scenario in different urban settings.

This document contains the concept, design consideration, design implementation methodology, treatment efficiency also the operation
and maintenance procedure of the implemented faecal sludge treatment plant. This is just the beginning; there might be some technological modification and other suitable options for better treatment facility. Moreover, people’s acceptability and area conditions are the other important issues had been taken in consideration during implementation.

The objective of this study was to assess the current situation of WASH in four selected slums located in Ward no. 21, 24, 35 & 15 of Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC). Specific objectives of this study were:
a) To establish evidence based strong rationale for improving access to WASH services for slum dwellers; and
b) To influence relevant stakeholders including GoB line departments, donors, I/NGOs and raise public awareness on sustainable water and sanitation interventions for slum dwellers.

The ‘Water Safety Framework (WSF) in Bangladesh’ has been prepared based on WHO’s ‘Water Safety Framework (WSF)’ approach and in consultations with the sector experts, stakeholders, professionals and water service providers to ensure the safety of drinking water. The WSF comprises three components: (i) Health Based Targets (HBTs), (ii) Water Safety Plan (WSP) and (iii) Surveillance.

ITN-BUET has developed a Quality Assurance System or briefly QA System for the training programs by which a balanced evaluation of a training program can be carried out. This document is the manual of that Quality Assurance System model.

This report describes the process of implementation of Water Safety Plans in Bangladesh since 2004. The focus of attention has been on rural water supplies, although there has also been some experience with Pourshava piped water supplies.

The research conducted by the ITN Center at BUET provides valuable insights into the design criteria and performance of multi-stage filtration units for water treatment in Bangladesh. The study highlights the importance of different filtration stages, their effectiveness in turbidity and color removal, and the significance of specific design parameters for optimal system performance.
