This exhibition is organized by Pure Earth Bangladesh with technical support from the Department of Environment (DoE), and the Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS). This event is a part of our ongoing campaign to observe this year’s International Lead Poisoning Prevention Week (ILPPW) with the theme “End Childhood Lead Poisoning.”

The photography exhibition “Solve Lead Pollution, Save Future Generations” will be inaugurated in the kind presence of Ms. Razinara Begum, Director, Waste and Chemicals Management, Department of Environment (DoE); and Mohammod Solaiman Haider, Director, Planning, Department of Environment (DoE). Many respected officials from DoE and DGHS will be also present as Special Guests at the event.

Over the years, Pure Earth has been working closely with many partners and stakeholders to solve lead pollution in Bangladesh. This photography exhibition showcases the visual evidence of our impactful and collaborative actions to mitigate lead pollution through research, advocacy, awareness, and source-specific interventions.

Hundreds of photos will be exhibited that acknowledge our remarkable journey and feature many best practices that could be replicated and scaled up for a bigger impact. Besides the photo exhibition, our field investigators will do live demonstration of Pure Earth Marketplace screening to show how lead contamination level is detected on various consumer products.
