Access to clean water and safe sanitation is not merely a basic service — it is a cornerstone of human rights, health, and sustainable development.
At Serene Planet, we understand that infrastructure alone is not enough.
Without education, awareness, and local leadership, water and sanitation solutions cannot endure.
That is why we focus on empowering people through knowledge — equipping communities with the skills and understanding needed to protect and sustain their own resources.
Why Our Approach Matters
Providing facilities can only go so far.
True change happens when individuals and communities:
Understand the links between hygiene, health, and dignity.
Gain the skills to maintain and improve sanitation systems.
Take ownership of their water resources through informed action.
Educational interventions have been shown to significantly reduce waterborne diseases, improve sanitation adoption rates, and promote sustainable behaviors over time.
By focusing on training and awareness, we ensure that water and sanitation initiatives are community-driven, resilient, and equitable.
Our work spans five key districts and fifteen universities, each program adapted to local contexts and community needs:
Chattogram: Hygiene promotion campaigns within densely populated neighborhoods and flood-prone zones.
Cox’s Bazar: Workshops on water conservation and safe latrine usage, with a focus on vulnerable groups.
Dhaka: Urban outreach programs teaching safe water storage, personal hygiene, and waste management.
Manikganj: Training in sustainable water harvesting methods and community sanitation system maintenance.
Dinajpur: School and youth-centered awareness sessions integrating sanitation education into broader health promotion.
At 15 partner universities, we are nurturing future advocates by:
Hosting seminars on integrated water resource management.
Facilitating student-led research into local sanitation challenges.
Encouraging practical innovation for clean water access in under-resourced areas.
Universities serve as critical hubs for scaling knowledge, fostering leadership, and inspiring long-term commitment to water equity.
By aligning with the Sustainable Development Goals — particularly Goal 6: Clean Water and Sanitation, Goal 3: Good Health and Well-Being, and Goal 10: Reduced Inequalities — we contribute to building communities that are healthier, stronger, and more self-reliant.
Water and sanitation challenges are solvable — not just with more resources, but with better-informed communities.
At Serene Planet, we believe education is not a supporting tool — it is the foundation of every sustainable solution.
