I visited the Dhaka Water Supply and Sewerage Authority to inaugurate two ADB-supported facilities: the Integrated Water Operation Center and a new child day care center.
The operation center strengthens operational intelligence for more reliable and efficient water services across Dhaka. The day care center was established under an ADB project supported by a $5 million Asian Development Fund (ADF) grant. It supports staff who are working parents, helping create a workplace where women can participate fully.
Infrastructure is not only pipes and plants. It is also systems, services, and workplaces that allow a city and its people to thrive. @ADB_HQ will continue supporting more reliable, inclusive, and resilient cities.
