Over 1,000 people move to Dhaka every day, but almost two-thirds of Dhaka’s sewage is untreated and left to seep into waterways and the ground. Tens of thousands of people die each year of cholera, diarrhea and other waterborne diseases in Bangladesh – but the country is also an innovator in promising new approaches to providing clean water and decent sanitation for all.
