Description:
Waterlogging in the Satkhira district of Bangladesh — exacerbated by illegal dumping and building development — has given rise to a crisis in water, sanitation, and hygiene. This short documentary highlights a local effort, started two years ago, whereby local, national, and international civil society organisations worked together to ensure that the government funds targeted for the excavation of a 10 kilometre stretch of a water canal in the district were expediently and transparently used
