Produktbeschreibung
This volume is the 11th in a series of books that focus on the practice of Urban Environmental Management (UEM) in developing countries. Such cities face more immediate problems than those in the developed world and have fewer resources to deal with them. This study is the report of a graduate studio that took place at the School of Planning, College of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning (DAAP) at the University of Cincinnati, USA from August through December 2024. The objective of the studio was to prepare students to work overseas in data-poor environments as professional consulting planners. The 12 domestic and international students operated in sector-level teams preparing a 5-year Environmental Plan for Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh. A megacity with a population of 10.4 million and a metropolitan region of over 23.9 million people, it is widely considered to be the most densely populated built-up urban area in the world. Dhaka is an important cultural, economic, and scientific hub of Eastern South Asia. Nevertheless, it is plagued by poverty, transportation congestion, water pollution, poor air quality, and inadequate sewage and sanitation infrastructure.
