It is designed to foster\u00a0<strong>cross-city learning and collaboration<\/strong>, bringing together local governments, sector professionals, development partners, and researchers to discuss real challenges and practical solutions in urban sanitation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"m_-51440671047667020mcePastedContent\">Every session highlights a key theme, combining expert presentations, city case studies, and open discussions. The webinars are hosted in partnership with national and international collaborators and are open to participants across the region and beyond.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"m_-51440671047667020mcePastedContent\">Why Climate-Resilient WASH Matters<\/h2>\n<p>Climate change is no longer a distant threat\u2014it is a present challenge for urban sanitation. Cities are increasingly exposed to rising temperatures, intense rainfall, waterlogging, and other climate-related shocks that disrupt sanitation systems across the chain\u2014from household containment to treatment and safe reuse.<\/p>\n<p>As we pursue SDG 6\u2014universal access to safe water and sanitation, there is an urgent need to design systems that are not only inclusive and sustainable, but also\u00a0<strong>climate-resilient<\/strong>. This calls for an adaptive mindset and\u00a0<strong>innovative technologies<\/strong>\u00a0that can withstand stress, ensure continuity of service, and protect vulnerable populations.<\/p>\n<p>This is why the focus on\u00a0<strong>climate-resilient WASH<\/strong>\u00a0is so important. We need to rethink how our sanitation systems are planned, built, and managed so they can adapt to changing weather, protect people\u2019s health, and serve communities better even in crisis.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"m_-51440671047667020mcePastedContent\">This Session\u2019s Focus: Climate Resilient WASH<\/h2>\n<p>The upcoming session on\u00a0<strong>August 26, 2025<\/strong>, will explore\u00a0<strong>how cities are applying technology and innovative approaches<\/strong>\u00a0to make sanitation systems more\u00a0<strong>resilient to climate impacts<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Participants will learn:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How climate change is affecting sanitation systems\u2014both infrastructure and service delivery<\/li>\n<li>What\u00a0<strong>technological solutions<\/strong>\u00a0(e.g. modular STPs, container-based sanitation, nature-based systems, sensor-driven monitoring) cities are piloting or scaling up<\/li>\n<li>How planning tools and decision-support models are helping cities adapt to extreme climate events<\/li>\n<li>What city-level strategies, governance practices, and financing approaches are enabling climate-smart sanitation<\/li>\n<li>Insights from<strong>\u00a0Bangladeshi cities and international experiences<\/strong>\u00a0on building adaptive and inclusive systems<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This 90-minute virtual session will include presentations from national and international experts, followed by interactive discussion and Q&amp;A.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"m_-51440671047667020mcePastedContent\">Why Join?<\/h2>\n<p>City-San Connect is more than just a webinar\u2014it&#8217;s a platform for connecting cities through shared learning.
