Identifying Waste Management Strategy and Activation Model for Tanguar Haor Region

Climate Adaptation & Resilience

Lead: Dr. Sarah Johnson

Summary

Since February 2022, this ongoing project, associated with Bangladesh’s Ministry of Civil Aviation and Tourism, develops waste management strategies and adaptive practices in Tanguar Haor. Daahuk has facilitated over 200 large-capacity waste bins for boatmen, riverside markets, and communities, identifying leaders from trade groups for supervision. Low-cost logistics support removes waste from this pristine ecosystem, incorporating a subsidy-based volunteering model for financial inclusion to encourage participation. With the Bangladesh Tourism Board as patron, Daahuk ensures inclusive regional facilitation. Aligned with Daahuk’s philosophy of Integrated Social Capital, it strengthens networks for long-term resilience, complementing eco-tourism and conservation efforts. This initiative protects biodiversity, promotes community ownership, and integrates with broader climate-focused projects, driving sustainable growth in vulnerable wetlands through collaborative action and innovation.
