This report presents empirical evidence on the existing state of drinking water services in coastal Bangladesh, highlighting challenges and opportunities for reforms in the institutional design, information systems, and sustainable finances under the proposed ‘SafePani’ model. The report draws on four years of interdisciplinary and collaborative work of the REACH programme in Khulna district, and is one of the two of background working papers supporting the main report titled Policy reform for safe drinking water service delivery in rural Bangladesh (Hope et al. 2021).
