Project Description
Geo-Planning for Advanced Development (GPAD) is actively engaged in an impactful survey in collaboration with the Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC). Using advanced drone technology, we are focused on identifying mosquito breeding sites in rooftop gardens and pooled water areas within the DNCC jurisdiction. These efforts aim to combat the proliferation of the Aedes species known for transmitting diseases like dengue.
It was an honor to have Md. Salim Reza, Chief Executive Officer, DNCC, and Brig. Gen. AKM Shafiqur Rahman, Chief Health Officer, DNCC, present during the inauguration of this groundbreaking drone survey. DNCC Regional Executive Officer and Executive Magistrate Motakabbir Ahmed, Ward No. 29 Councilor Md. Salimullah (Sulu), Ward No. 30 Councilor Abul Kasem, Councilor of Reserved Constituency Shaheen Akhtar Sathi, Roksana Alam and others were also present in the event.
This collaborative initiative highlights our commitment to utilizing innovative solutions and collaborative partnerships to tackle public health challenges. Stay tuned for updates on this significant endeavor as we work towards a mosquito-free and healthier Dhaka!
