Bangladesh has achieved a historic milestone by becoming the first South Asian nation to join the UN Convention on the Protection and Use of Transboundary Watercourses and International Lakes. As a deltaic nation with 57 transboundary rivers, including the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna system, this accession strengthens Bangladesh’s commitment to sustainable water governance.

Facing challenges like rising sea levels and salinity intrusion, the country aims to enhance cross-border water cooperation. Syeda Rizwana Hasan, Adviser on Water Resources, emphasized the convention’s role in fostering effective water policies to ensure long-term water security, addressing climate change and population growth.

On the occasion of 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 𝐑𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐃𝐚𝐲 people around the world celebrate the blessings of waterways and raise awareness for the rights of rivers. This year’s World River Day theme is ‘Waterways for a Sustainable Future’.

It focuses on raising awareness about the importance of water bodies as a part and parcel of biodiversity. It further highlights the significance of ensuring clean water and a secure ecosystem for the future generations.

So, revival of the importance of local knowledge, community based traditional practices, and stewardship worldview to nurture nature are crucial to restore our waterway sustainability for the upcoming generations. Imposed development agendas and foreign technologically advanced solutions will rather complicate the path of reaching sustainability of waterways.
